FbL, here... Reporting for duty after a long absence. I'm in Washington DC, attending the American Veterans Center Annual Conference. Tonight was the opening reception, and a screening of a new documentary on the History channel. I hardly know where to start, but here goes...
The mission of The
American Veterans Center is "to preserve and promote the legacy of America’s servicemen and women from World War II through Operation Iraqi Freedom." If tonight's reception and screening is any indication, they do that very, very well.
Tonight's centerpiece was the screening of two exceprts from
WWII in HD, a documentary series narrated by Gary Sinise.
WWII in HD includes extraordinary footage of WWII-era events, much of which hasn't been seen in decades, and all restored in sound and video. It's powerful stuff.
