- The film's focus is the 505th Airborne Infantry: its organization, training, and combat debut in Sicily in July 1943.

Using rare footage and a period soundtrack, this special deconstructs the 1970s, from Watergate to Studio 54. It evokes nostalgia and challenges it, exploring the dark side of the decade's cult leaders, sexual liberation and disco scene.
