Stories of two American medics from the 101st Airborne who parachuted into Normandy.

Eagles of Mercy recounts a seldom-told chapter in the World War II narrative, picking up in the opening moments of D-Day. In the early hours of June 6, 1944, two young American medics with the 101st Airborne "Screaming Eagles" parachuted into France and soon found themselves trapped in a 12th-century Norman church in Angoville-au-Plain, providing first aid to the first casualties of D-Day.
