A private test screening of THE 100TH: Seeds of Aloha will take place on Saturday, July 18, from 9:30 AM to 12:00 PM at the Daniel K. Akaka State Veterans Home. The event will feature a 110-minute screening, a brief introduction, and a Q&A with producer/director Steve Sue.

Residents, their families, and staff are invited to attend. As this is a test screening, audience comments and feedback are welcome and will help the filmmakers make the film as strong as possible before its official release.

Be among the first to see this new documentary about Hawaiʻi’s legendary 100th Infantry Battalion and 442nd Regimental Combat Team—the World War II “Purple Heart Battalion” and one of the most decorated units in U.S. military history. The film explores how these soldiers carried the spirit of Aloha while helping liberate Italy, France, and Germany, and how their legacy continued for decades through their contributions to rebuilding a free and peaceful world.
