PATH OF THE PAST Benefit Screening for ‘H.E.R.O.E.S. Care’ January 16th at Big Daddy’s Bar & Grill in St. Louis

The local WWII Documentary PATH OF THE PAST will screen at Big Daddy’s Bar & Grill in St. Louis (1000 Sidney St.) on Thursday January 16th at 7pm. There will be a Q&A with filmmaker Lou Baczewski after the film. Admission is $10. A portion of proceeds from Path of the Past benefit families dealing with deployment via the non-profit H.E.R.O.E.S. Care. 

Path of the Past tells the story of Sgt. Louis “Louch” Baczewski, who was part of a tank crew in the 3rd Armored Division (AD) that fought in all five major European campaigns, including the infamous Battle of the Bulge. The film focuses less on the American victory and more on the costs and European destruction of the war and is based on Lou Baczewski’s book Louch. “If you want to know what war is really like, Louch is a must read,” states retired 3 Star Lt. General Thomas Griffin: Former Commander of the 3rd AD.  “[Louch’s] experience as a tanker in “Spearhead,” the great 3rd Armored Division, represents not only those who fought the war, but how they fought, the sacrifices they made, and in many cases how they suffered and died.”

PATH OF THE PAST is currently available on Amazon Fire, Roku, iOS and Android devices, Apple TV and the web via Valorous TV as well as Vimeo. Additional digital platforms as well as DVD are planned for 2020.  To book a screening of the film for your group or organization, please email pathofthepast@gmail.com.
