Comrades,
I have received official word that "The Last Full Measure" will be coming to the Westhampton PAC on October 19th, 2019. We have been gifted 200 tickets which will be made available for the military and veterans. In addition to the movie VFW Post 5350 will be providing a buffet dinner for the first 100 at the Post prior to the movie. In order to obtain tickets you must make a reservation by calling the theatre 631 288 1500, leave your name, bring your military or
veteran ID on the night of the event and pickup your ticket at will call. Do not make a reservation unless you are committed to attendance. Please wear your VFW overseas cover to the theatre. PLEASE DO NOT WAIT TO MAKE YOUR RESERVATION AS SEATING IS LIMITED AND TICKETS WILL GO QUICKLY. Dinner will be served at 17:00 hours and the Movie begins at 19:30 hours.

From true events, The Last Full Measure is one of the great untold stories from the Vietnam War. During one of the bloodiest days of the Vietnam War, Air Force Pararescueman, William H. Pitsenbarger, saves the lives of nearly sixty mud soldiers whom he did not know before falling himself. He was awarded a posthumous Medal of Honor after a young Washington bureaucrat teamed with veterans of Operation Abilene and Pitsenbarger's father and convinced Congress to reconsider the legacy of his
sacrifice 34 years after his death.

Thank you Jimmy Settle for donating 10 signed books to the PJA
Please make a donation of $30 or more (to cover shipping) and support your PJA...
“That Others May Live” is a mantra that defines the fearless men of Alaska’s 212th Pararescue Unit, the PJs, one of the
most elite military forces on the planet. Whether they are rescuing citizens injured and freezing in the Alaskan wilderness or saving wounded Rangers and SEALS in blazing firefights at war, the PJs are the least known and most highly trained of America’s warriors.
Please remember to add your shipping address for this item in the comments.
