Aflevering 1: De baai staat in brand

Op 3 maart 1942 voerden Japanse Zero-gevechtsvliegtuigen een verwoestende luchtaanval uit op Broome, West-Australië. Charles D'Antoine, een jonge Indigenous man, was de vliegboten in Roebuck Bay aan het schoonmaken toen de bommen vielen. Te midden van de chaos redde Charles, die door zijn naasten Uncle Charlie wordt genoemd, het leven van drie Nederlandse burgers. Voor zijn moed ontving hij de 'Erepenning voor Menslievend Hulpbetoon in zilver' van de Nederlandse regering. Maar waarom werd deze heldendaad nooit officieel erkend door Australië?
