After a brief introduction by film producer Darroch Greer, we next got to watch a mostly complete cut of “The Millionaires’ Unit” a documentary based on the book by Marc Wortman.
This is the story surrounding the beginnings of US Naval Aviation. The nucleus of this group were Yale students, mostly of wealthy families. This was a really nice production. The producers expressed interest in hearing from attendees about what they liked and disliked about the film. There were many offers of assistance and some small corrections expressed after the presentation, but generally the movie was very well received by the group.
Darroch stated their ultimate goal would be to have the documentary shown by PBS, possibly on the series “American Experience”
