Lt I. B. "Jack" Donalson leads Lt. Andrew Reynolds and Lt. George Preddy of the 49th FG as they dive to intercept a formation of Japanese Betty bombers over Darwin, Australia during 1942. When the Japanese attacked Australia in early 1942 they wiped out most of the Australian and American aircraft in the Northern Territory. The seasoned Japanese pilots flew with impunity over the Northern Territory until the inexperienced pilots of the American 49th Fighter Group went into action against them in March. Despite overwhelming odds the 49th made raids on Australia too costly for the Japanese to continue.
