old gliding movie
In 1954 or 1955 I saw a short movie at a local theater about gliding.
It was in black and white and involved young men building/repairing a glider in secret from the military/police. They winch launched the glider which was flown by their leader. The young pilot was wounded by a military rifleman as the glider took off. The pilot was dead when the others ran to glider after it landed and carried the pilot on their shoulders from the airfield. What was this short feature that I saw?
