Little Dieter Needs to Fly plot
"In 1966, Dieter Dengler was shot down over Laos, captured, and, down to 85 pounds, escaped."
An incredible story of courage and survival against all odds. This man's name is Dieter Dengler. He was born in the Black Forest in Germany. As a child, watching his village being destroyed by American bombers, one flew so close to his attic window that he made split-second eye contact with the pilot flashing past. In that moment, Dieter knew he had to fly.
