Synopsis: The Puerto Rican 65th Infantry regiment, the only all-Hispanic unit in U.S. Army history, served valiantly in World War I and World War II and then ended up shrouded in controversy during the Korean War. Narrated by Hector Elizondo, the award-winning film mixes archival footage with interviews of those who served.
