Documentary about American fighter pilots who raided Romania during WWII to be aired on December 1st

A documentary about American fighter pilots and bombers who raided Romanian targets in the Second World War will be aired on December 1 on TVR 1, Romania's national television channel. The documentary, called "Knights of the Sky: Air War Over Romania" is produced by Romanian-born Dan Dimancescu and directed by Nicholas Dimancescu, the founder of Kogainon Films, in partnership with National Geographic magazine Romania. 'Ace' pilot interviews, both American and Romanian, as well as US Air Force prisoners experiences are explored through rarely viewed Romanian archive footage. The documentary is seen through the eyes and words of Nicholas Dimancescu. He journeys back to Romania both to discover his own roots and also to uncover the stories of American and Romanian airmen who raided and defended Romania's oil refineries during World War II. The experiences of wartime 'aces' on both sides are recounted and two of them, once enemies who attacked one another over Romania, meet for the first time 66 years later.
