I'm trips to Washington DC.

To visit the memorial in their honor a final thank you for these men -- -- their eighty's and ninety's it's called -- flight.

And it's really good I'm told I was too busy baking brownies to watch it.

Here's a trailer.

It took sixty years for us to build a memorial to these guys they've never gotten a welcome home that they deserve.

He has cancer and he kept saying I'm going to instruct them to make it to the World War II memorial.

We -- World War II veterans see the memorial at no cost.

I'm Bob Dole and my wife Elizabeth.

The -- we've got to let everybody know the sacrifices.

Made by that generation.

One that didn't come back.

We're being real life he'll never forget its political.

-- -- -- -- -- -- It's awesome -- -- is one of the executive producers.

And I would say why should people go see this film but that's a ridiculous they have must see this movie I think that's we're involved.

We -- -- bats yeah but there are many more features throughout the film.

And it was a real privilege to work on this project with the team.

Yet what was it like for you I mean how was this effort this journey was it hard I mean getting this together won't know I mean this this film actually -- That can't for the last three years of work actually yeah and Dan -- the director of the project quite -- another producer on the project they always have to credit other people what they're incredibly talented -- I wanna I wanna be -- -- -- -- as -- -- all the volunteers yeah Wisconsin credit group.

Incredible group of folks incredible group that's.

And the project that we are all super product.

Tell me about the -- united Miller Park in Milwaukee hit 28000.

Plus people he slammed into the to the brewers' stadium in Milwaukee and I mean you could hear a pin drop in the place it was phenomenal -- I think almost 200 World War II veterans like in the stadium -- after watching the film.

Again just like a once -- like comics that's got to be the largest movie premiere ever did it actually is yeah the world record for the largest film largest -- audience in history.

I think we'll probably have that for like another two years from Arkansas but the movie still stands -- -- my hope.

Yes go see it it opens up around December 7 in Wisconsin you actually get a couple extra days -- -- -- so in Wisconsin New York.

LA and -- Washington DC we have another really big event that -- our constitution hall on December 7 which is going to be incredible.

Bob any documentaries plant in the future.

Yeah -- got a lot of other extra stuff coming but I don't know what the new next project is for now.

-- -- an honor flight the movie dot com.
