Codul eroului este omagiul vibrant pe care amiralul McRaven îl aduce eroilor reali, de zi cu zi, pe care i-a întâlnit de-a lungul anilor, de pe câmpul de luptă până la spitale și campusuri universitare, care contribuie la salvarea lumii. În copilăria sa petrecută în Texas, Bill McRaven visa să fie supererou. Își dorea să-și pună pe spate o pelerină și să-și folosească superputerile pentru a salva Pământul de distrugere. Dar acel băiețel a crescut și a început să călătorească prin lume, întâlnind eroi peste tot – și niciunul dintre ei nu avea superputeri. Niciunul nu purta pelerină sau glugă.

Story
Drie jonge vrouwen in het gewapende verzet tijdens de Tweede Wereldoorlog – Desnoods met wapens vertelt hun uitzonderlijke verhaal. Vrijwel iedereen kent verzetsicoon Hannie Schaft, maar niet veel mensen weten dat ze intensief samenwerkte met twee zussen: Truus en Freddie Oversteegen. Desnoods met wapens is het verhaal van deze drie vrouwen, die tijdens de Tweede Wereldoorlog de wapens opnamen tegen de nazi's – zeer uitzonderlijk voor vrouwen in die tijd. Ze waren piepjong: Hannie was negentien en de zussen waren zestien en veertien toen ze actief werden in het verzet.

Story
From the snowy Soviet shooting range to the heat and dust of Africa, nothing is what it seems. And neither is Sue Dobson. The image of South Africa in the 1980's as the golden paradise on the tip of the African continent conceals a brutal, racist Apartheid regime. Those who oppose it risk their lives. Beauty and brutality go hand in hand.

Story
The 20-year war fought by the US and its allies in Afghanistan is the longest war of the 21st century. It brought opportunity and tragedy for those who were forced to live through it. The abrupt withdrawal of British and American troops in 2021, in what may come to be regarded as one of the worst foreign policy failures of the past hundred years, precipitated the swift recapture of the country by the Taliban. With the withdrawal came upheaval and torment for Afghans who had loyally served alongside NATO forces and were left to fend for themselves. This is the story of one such family.

Story
In April 1865, Richmond fell to the Union army and Gen. Robert E. Lee surrendered to his Northern counterpart, Ulysses S. Grant, at the Appomattox Court House. But the Civil War was far from over. Determined to keep Confederate dreams of secession alive, President Jefferson Davis and his cabinet fled the burning capital city. With Union troops in pursuit, the fugitives rallied loyalists across the South and made plans to escape to Cuba. Finally captured in Irwinville, Georgia, the former US senator and secretary of war became a prisoner of the American government.
