If you’re in search of a great professional development event for your leaders and soldiers, we have a unique free opportunity, that's also open to the entire community.
This April marks the 80th anniversary of the end of WWII (and specific events on April 28th & 30th involving the 10th Mountain Division), the local VFW post 8862 is hosting a free screening of the documentary "The Lost Mountaineers" at the Post Theater on Caserma Ederle on April 28th at 10:45 a.m.
Here's the schedule:
- 9:45 a.m.: BOSS Program Workshop for Single Soldiers @ Vicenza USO
- 10:45 a.m.: Soldiers at Theater / Introductions
- 11 a.m.: Film Screening ("The Lost Mountaineers")
- 11:45 a.m.: Q&A with historians & MG Skip Davis (Ret.) (film narrator)
- 1:30 p.m.: Second Viewing at Del Din (location TBD)
Prior to the film, AAFES will be providing food and drinks. Please support attendance where possible, as it's a great opportunity to learn about the history of the 10th Mountain Division in Italy and reinforces the importance of the enduring partnership between the U.S. and Italy.
The film was produced by the Torbole historian group and commemorates the 80th Anniversary of Italy's Liberation and tells the story of the Soldiers who died. This screening provides a unique opportunity to reflect on the sacrifices made in the pursuit of freedom.
