Valiant is a British pigeon who wants to join the Royal Homing Pigeon Service during World War II to fight for freedom. He overcomes obstacles such as his mothers objections and his small stature, and becomes part of Squad F. When the more experienced squads run out, Squad F heads on a dangerous and important mission to deliver a message. But when Valiant's friend Bugsy and the message are captured, it is up to Valiant to save them from the clutches of enemy General Von Talon.
