California Premiere of 10 Good Men | The Final Story of the B-17 November 4th

Wednesday. November 4th 6pm  10 Good Men — B-17 Veterans Tell the Air War (Official Documentary)  Runtime: 1h 30m

Ten of the last remaining veterans of the B-17 Flying Fortress recall their missions over Europe in World War II, revealing how courage, loss, and duty shaped the air war—and the men who fought it.

The B-17 Flying Fortress became an icon of American air power in World War II, but its legacy is written by the stories of the crews who flew it.

In 10 Good Men, ten veterans recount their experiences from across the full span of the air war in Europe. Pilots, navigators, bombardiers, and gunners speak candidly about their missions, training, and survival—some shot down and captured, others completing dozens of sorties.

Structured chronologically, the film traces the Allied air campaign's evolution: early daylight raids met with huge losses, the arrival of long-range fighter escorts, the evolution of German flak and fighter strategies, and the final push that helped the Allies win the war.

The narrative builds through the veterans themselves—men reflecting, eight decades later, on what they endured, what it cost, and why it matters today.

Supported by newly restored archival footage from both American and German archives, original photography, and modern interviews, 10 Good Men documents both the machinery of war and the humanity behind it. It serves as a testament to a generation now in its final years and to the role they played in defining the course of history.
