520    "Above and Beyond: The Incredible Escape of Jewish-
       American B-17 Pilot Bruce Sundlun from Nazi-Occupied 
       Europe in World War II. During overseas active duty 
       beginning in June 1943 Bruce Sundlun, a Jewish-American 
       college student, served as a B-17 Flying Fortress pilot in
       the England-based 384th Bomb Group of the Eighth Air Force
       at Grafton-Underwood Air Base. Sundlun's plane, the Damn 
       Yankee, was shot down over Nazi-occupied Jabbeke, Belgium 
       on 1 December 1943 after being damaged by flak and 
       attacked by German fighter planes following the bombing of
       Solingen, Germany, on the Yankee's 13th mission over 
       Europe. Five of his crew were killed, four others captured
       by the Germans. After being smuggled out of Belgium on 
       more than 100 stolen bicycles and hidden by Catholic 
       priests and after six months time cooperating with the 
       French Resistance under the code name Salamander, Bruce 
       Sundlun made several attempts to enter neutral Spain in an
       effort to escape back to England. However, after deciding 
       that there was too much danger of capture or loss in the 
       snowy Pyrenees, Sundlun made his way, once again on stolen
       bicycles, north-eastward across France where he finally 
       escaped into Switzerland. Before escaping into Switzerland,
       Sundlun had once again engaged with the Maquis (French 
       Resistance) in acts of sabotage against German Army units.
       On entering neutral Switzerland, Bruce Sundlun was 
       recruited by Allen Dulles working out of the U.S. Embassy 
       in Bern to reenter France under the auspices of the Office
       of Strategic Services (OSS) to act as a spy and 
       bombardment spotter for the Allied invasion of Marseilles 
       (Southern France) in August 1944. Following WWII, Bruce 
       Sundlun became a very successful businessman, advisor to 
       presidents and the 71st governor of the State of Rhode 
       Island. Above and Beyond is Bruce Sundlun's amazing escape
       from occupied Europe in World War II, filmed on location 
       in Belgium and narrated by Sundlun's own daughter, Kara, 
       who travelled back to the village of Jabbeke in Belgium, 
       to re-trace her father's footsteps in World War II."--
