This documentary tells the story of the VLR (Very Long Range) P-51 Mustang units assigned to Iwo Jima in the Pacific during 1945. These courageous and brave pilots battled the odds to fly all the way to Tokyo to protect and escort the B-29 Superfortresses as they finished off Japan – earning them the nickname of the “Tokyo Club”.
