 Definition: 

Decoration Day
A debt of honor becomes a bridge to freedom in this powerful, life-affirming winner of two Golden Globes for Best Actor, James Garner. Judge Albert Sidney (Garner) has retired from the bench and pretty much from life itself when he's asked to help out his old boyhood friend Gee Penniwell (Bill Cobb), who's refusing the government's belated attempt to award him the Medal of Honor. In his attempts to delve deeper into the mystery, Albert Sidney is confronted not only with Gee's bitterness about WWII, but the silent war he and the black man have maintained for almost thirty years. As Albert Sidney and Gee are forced to confront their own personal ghosts from the past, they will learn the true meaning of friendship and find the power of forgiveness in this unforgettable lesson in courage and love.
