Welcome to the launching of our website!  Since the May 2, 2012 Premiere of The Glorious and the Brave documentary film and companion book, so many exciting things have happened.  None of us involved in this project expected more than an initial screening and the sale of a few DVDs and books. Boy, were we wrong!  Hundreds of books and DVDs have been sold in just three months!

On July 3rd the Capitol Theatre in downtown Chambersburg showed the film as part of their July 4th festivities.  Despite quite a storm outside, the theatre filled with people from the community anxious to see the film and meet the "Stars":  our wonderful WW II veterans, Holocaust survivors, and students involved in the making of the film and the book.

At the annual Pennsylvania Holocaust Education Council (PHEC) meeting, segments of the film were shown to thirty PHEC members, comprised of teachers and folks from Holocaust resource centers.

But, there's more!  In October the film will be shown at the Pennsylvania Council of Teachers of English and Language Arts (PCTELA) state-wide conference.

We are also thrilled to announce that the film will air on Veteran's Day on WGAL-TV 68!!!  More information regarding time will be announced soon, so stay tuned for details!

On the right hand side of this website you will find a link to our facebook page and also links to pages featuring photos, ordering information, etc.  A comprehensive educator's guide is in process and will be available soon!

Thank you to everyone who has participated in making The Glorious and The Brave a success!  Proceeds from the sale of the DVD and books benefit The Wounded Warriors Project and the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum.
