Noble Heart


Noble Heart Media is devoted to telling stories that inspire and heal.
We are currently working on two projects – a book and a documentary film – telling the story of the miraculous survival of Israel in the first few weeks of her existence in May 1948. The focus is a group of four young pilots – an American, a South African, and two Israelis – who spread their wings over the country and held off the Army of Egypt.

“Destiny” the Book, by Lorin Roche, Ph.D. and Camille Maurine – narrative nonfiction based on Lou’s life story. It will read like an action-adventure novel and as a gripping personal memoir. From Lou’s boyhood on a farm in Hungary, to immigrating to the U.S. and becoming a fighter pilot in the Marines, to his service to the nation of Israel, the book traces the forces that shaped his destiny. 

“Destiny” the Documentary Film – reveals Lou’s personal journey, the journey of the heart. The film follows the adventures of the pilots from Los Angeles to New York, Rome, Czechoslovakia, and Israel. Interviews with Lou and other key personnel about the 1948 story will be woven with historical footage, photos, and beautifully filmed, poetic recreations of Lou’s memories and visions.

Collectively, the book and documentary constitute the Flight of Angels Project.

This story is not widely known, even though the events have been recorded in newspaper accounts, magazine articles, hundreds of public lectures, and history books. These brief accounts only touch on the main points of this improbable adventure. Now Lorin Roche and Camille Maurine are writing the story based on their research and in-depth interviews with Captain Lou Lenart. Noble Heart Media is also producing the documentary.
