Nov. 28: ‘’60s at 50’ Symposium to Screen ‘We Were Soldiers’

Bucknell University’s “The ’60s at 50: Reflections on America a Half-Century Later,” a symposium dedicated to a reconsideration of the political, social and cultural legacy of the American 1960s, will present a screening of the 2002 film We Were Soldiers on Wednesday, Nov. 28, at 7 p.m. in the Campus Theatre, 413 Market Street in downtown Lewisburg.

Based upon the best-selling book We Were Soldiers Once … and Young by Lt. Gen. Harold G. Moore (Ret.) and journalist Joseph L. Galloway, this war drama depicts the true story of the first major battle between the United States and North Vietnamese forces. It is a film about uncommon valor and nobility under fire, loyalty among soldiers, and the heroism and sacrifice of men and women both home and abroad.

Additional information is available at the Campus Theatre website.
