I'm curious if anyone knows about the Deenethorpe DVD released this month by Old Segundo Productions. Is it good? Does it include any new info about the 401st? Is it worth $29.95 (including shipping)? I recieved a postcard about it this week. I believe I signed up for Old Segundo's mailings while attending the CO Reunion.
Thanks for sharing your feedback and Happy Holidays to all!

There is suppose to be a showing here in Lubbock at a local school near my house. There was one interview locally that I observed with Dr. William This is the first know 16mm filming in flight mission that we were able to obtain from one of our Assn. members for the documentary..

I really enjoyed the combat footage and the sound during part of it. I've shown it to a couple of friends and they learned a lot about the 401st as well.
I do wish the cost of the DVD was a bit lower. I also hope we can show it at our 2013 Reunion in Ohio as I think many would really enjoy it and possibly order it after seeing it.
