Lessons from the Silver Screen: Installment Four
Tuesday, February 8, 2011 at 09:15AM DAWN PATROL was an early aerial combat movie, set amid the balsa-and-canvas airplanes of World War I. The heavy losses of nearly every Allied patrol became the background for an emerging crisis.
Would the squadron's commander stand by as young fliers continued to die either by crash-inducing mechanical failures or enemy fire over the trenches? Would sacrifice extend beyond the soldier to the officer? Would honor mean death -- or saving another for at least another day?
Contemporary theories about LEADERSHIP abound, but the idea of sacrifice as a core attribute elude many of them. DAWN PATROL's message is that, at some point, leaders enter the fray if they believe the cause truly is worthy.
