Perishable Rush (DVD)
Subtitle
Transport aircraft of WWII were the
unsung heros of the battlefield and air. Planes like the C-54,
C-47, C-46, L-5 and PBY. This is a wartime documentary
about medical evacuation in the Pacific, from the battlefield to rear
hospital bases, and home. Although it could be considered propoganda
by today's standards, the film shows some spectacular footage of air
rescue and transport operations.
Rare Aviation's Steve Rhodes has converted
this film to a digital format, and has just released it, as a very
resonably priced DVD. Highly recommended for anyone interested
in this topic, or for great footage of transport planes in action! Also, see Rare Aviation's related release, Army Air Forces Pacific
DVD.
