27 Minutes at Son Tay

On November 21, 1970, U.S. Army Special Forces soldiers and U.S. Air Force airmen executed
a swift and stunning raid on the Son Tay prison camp to rescue American POWs. The historic
operation, completed without a single U.S. casualty, became the first joint-service special
operation of its kind and acted as a planning model for later missions, including the rescue of
Private Jessica Lynch and the raid that killed Osama bin Laden.

Directed by Ehren Parks and written by Daniel Smith, a U.S. Army Special Forces veteran who
was approached by the original raiders to bring their story to the screen, 27 Minutes at Son Tay
brings to life the planning, precision, and courage behind one of America’s least known, most
audacious rescue missions.
