On Wednesday, Sept. 23, the feature documentary 10 Good Men will screen at Classic Cinemas York Theatre (150 N. York St., Elmhurst) at 1 p.m. and 7 p.m., each followed by a live Q&A with director Trent “TJ” Jones.
The event is hosted by the Elmhurst Veterans Commission and the American 250 Working Group, with support from the City of Elmhurst and American Legion Post 187.
The 90-minute film preserves the firsthand combat stories of 10 of the last remaining World War II veterans who flew the legendary B-17 Flying Fortress—the equivalent of a single full crew during the war.
Featuring rare restored and colorized archive footage, an Emmy Award-winning narrator in Dan Nachtrab, and powerful interviews with these aging heroes, 10 Good Men offers a rare and intimate look at the air war over Europe through the eyes of those who lived it. The documentary has already earned rave reviews from New York Times best-selling authors and respected Air Force historians and is playing in select theaters throughout 2026.
It marks the first feature film from TJ3 Productions, the company behind Jones’s popular TJ3 History YouTube channel, which has built a large following with in-depth World War II aviation storytelling.
“These men represent the final voices of a generation that is quickly leaving us,” said Jones. “Our goal with 10 Good Men was to honor their service with the highest production quality possible, so that their experiences can be preserved and shared for generations to come.”
