10 GOOD MEN | World Premiere and First Screening Dates Set!
The first screening dates for 10 Good Men are officially set! After weeks of effort, we finally have the first locations and dates for 10 Good Men showings. We are working hard to book more, and in the coming weeks, we expect to double or triple the current list of showings. But for now, I want to make sure all of you have the list of events, especially the World Premiere ticket link! Here is the full trailer that just came out in case you haven't seen it:
FAYETTEVILLE, NC - Cameo Arthouse - June 20th and June 21st, 430PM (Tickets on sale soon!)

Saenger Theatre in Pensacola, FL! The Florida Premiere will be here on July 3rd and will feature a live Q&A with TJ! Tickets on sale soon.
Don't see a location near you? Reach out to your local museum or theater and tell them that you'd like to see a screening of 10 Good Men! This is one of the best ways to help us gain more screenings!
If you are not someone for theater films, then no worries! 10 Good Men will be coming to streaming platforms on Veterans Day 2026. Or - you can pre-order the DVD here on the 10 Good Men website! This helps support our project.
Lastly, in case you missed it, I want to share some other exciting news with all of you! Last week, my camera-guy Josh and I flew out to Las Vegas to interview retired USAF General Dan Druen. Dan is 99 years old and flew the F-86 during Korea and the F-4 Phantom in Vietnam! He logged more than 270 career combat missions, as well as two ejections and an unconfirmed Mig-15 kill!
F4 Phantom in Dan Druen's unit during Vietnam - He logged 173 combat missions in the conflict.
This was a particularly exciting interview for me, because it has been more and more difficult to find fighter pilots. Obviously, veterans at all are hard to find. But the few that we have been able to locate over the past year have almost exclusively been bomber crew members. So it was great to get to hear from a fighter pilot once again, especially one who logged aerial combat with an enemy fighter. It was awesome!
Our interview with him went great, and it was an honor to hear his story. We look forward to sharing it with you all later on. Thank you guys so much to the Patreon supporters who continue to make trips like that possible. If you want to join and help me get to more veterans, join the TJ3 History Patreon here! If you know a living veteran who saw combat in the air, please fill out our form here to see if he would be a good fit for an interview!
Well, that is all for today! Gotta get to work on next week's video. Thanks for everything guys.
-Your grateful friend, TJ
That is all I have for today—hopefully I will see some of you at the World Premiere in May (Buy tickets here!) or at other theaters throughout the summer! Thanks for reading, and I will talk to you guys soon!
I'd also like to take a moment to thank some of the people who read this newsletter who helped make 10 Good Men possible—Josh K, Will E, Bryan F, Bryan T, John P, and Drew T. Thank you all so much.
Please reply with your thoughts or feedback here! Here's to saving more history together.

Where to watch the final b-17 story 10 GOOD MEN | New Screenings Added! Whew... *wipes sweat from head* I'm not going to lie to you guys. This is some really hard work. Haha. But it will be worth it if we can tell this story! After weeks of effort, I am happy to announce some fantastic new screening locations and dates for 10 Good Men! It is important to remember: typically, the "film" industry is dominated by a handful of studios that produce whatever they want. And Hollywood is not exactly...
The announcement: Three years of interviewing veterans has led to this. In case you missed it, last week I officially announced the first feature film from TJ3 Productions: 10 Good Men. After three years of hard work hunting down and interviewing the last surviving World War II aviation veterans, I am proud to announce the flagship documentary of that endeavor. This film will seek to tell the story of the B-17 Flying Fortress and the men who flew it. Specifically, 10 good men who flew it....
BONUS CONTENT! The P-61 Black Widow - Behind the Scenes! Last month, I released a new documentary covering the P-61 Black Widow, one of the most unappreciated aircraft of the war. In today's newsletter, I will cover some bonus content that did not make the cut for that video! In case you missed it, here is a link to watch: BEHIND THE SCENES: To begin, let's take a look at some of the nose art on P-61 Black Widows from across the war. I was a little perplexed at why these night fighters had...
