He was one of the first American heroes of Pearl Harbor, but the US Navy tried to erase him, listing his actions only as those of "an unnamed Negro messman." Doris Miller, a Black mess attendant barred from combat training, grabbed a machine gun he wasn't allowed to touch on the sinking USS West Virginia and fought back. This is the story of his incredible heroism and the profound injustice that followed.
This documentary explores the hidden history of Doris Miller's fight for recognition, from the Black press demanding he be named, to the Navy Cross award that many felt should have been the Medal of Honor. We uncover the shocking betrayal of sending him back to mess duty, his tragic death in action on the USS Liscome Bay, and the 80-year-long battle to fully honor the man whose courage helped change a nation.
