George Herbert Walker Bush's military shining moment has been repeatedly run on CNN. Has anyone seen it?

The plane he was on took enemy fire over the Pacific. He bailed out (others died) and was picked up by an American Submarine.

What good luck! The submarine was close enough to scoop him out of the drink. But the real luck was having a movie camera ready on the Sub to document George Herbert Walker Bush's arrival on deck! I didn't know they had movie cameras on Subs. Someone with great foresight tipped off the crew to film Prescott's nephew.
Thankfully, the film was carefully saved for posterity. Try to catch the spot on CNN. They run it whenever news is bad for the President.
