While Hollywood has captured the reality of D-Day, it has not captured the hearts, the tears, the pain of leaders like "Ace" Parker and his men. This is the remarkable story of Company A and the 5th Ranger Battalion and what happened on D-Day and the days that followed. "Ace" Parker and his men were credited with moving further inland than any other group on D-Day. "Ace" was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross and inducted into the Ranger Hall of Fame.
