The story

The crew of the Memphis Belle, a B-17 Flying Fortress, take a brief respite between missions to play football while the Belle is repaired for her final, twenty-fifth mission. If successful, they will be the first bomber crew in the Eighth Air Force to survive a full tour of duty. In anticipation, Army publicist Lieutenant Colonel Bruce Derringer reviews crewmen files, planning to make them famous war heroes, and use the Belle's accrued record to sell vital war bonds.
