Scramble the Seawolves ....KPBS.... HUGE update!

Jeff and Shannon Arballo
Hi Seawolves and Friends!
Sorry that there hasn’t been an update on Scramble the Seawolves recently, however, we have been hard at work over the past couple of months working on our end to secure a “deal” with a Network so that we can generate as much exposure for the Seawolves.
After many meetings and conference calls and contract discussions, we are excited to report that we have signed a contract with KPBS, which is the same Network that is airing Ken Burns 10-part series, The Vietnam War.  Scramble the Seawolves will be “in the can” (completed) prior to the Seawolf Reunion next fall.  KPBS will also assist in planning and facilitating the anticipated PREMIER SCREENING of the film during the Seawolf Reunion in San Diego, Sep 2018 (Details/DateTBD). There will be a tremendous amount of publicity around the Documentary and as well, we will leverage local news stations to cover the Premier, which is simply more exposure for the Seawolves.
We couldn’t be more excited to bring this news to you today!  We are eternally grateful to everyone who has supported us through words of encouragement, kind emails, letters and who have contributed financially to this project.  We certainly couldn’t have gotten this far without your support. Thank you!
Please be sure to keep your eyes peeled over the next several days as we will be sharing some important updates.
We hope that you have a safe and relaxing Labor Day weekend!
Take care,
Jeff and Shannon Arballo

Thank you all for your kind words! I will say, we didn't have a "pitch guy" or a middle-man representing us. What we did have though was one heck of a great story about a tremendous group of American Heroes... the most decorated squadron in Naval Aviation History. Your story will be told. American's will finally learn of your history, accomplishments and of the sacrifices each of you made. This truly is he Vietnam Story most people have never heard. Our prayer is that your 44 fallen Brothers and those that have passed after the war, will smile down upon us as we bring this story to life. We feel blessed that we have been given the opportunity with KPBS and they believed in us to deliver a beautiful film.

Excellent. Thank you for all your hard work. You will help forward the stories and legacy. The Seawolves might yet be known to a wider audience. Maybe some of our decendants will be able to say " Great grand pap was there" with a bit of authority.....
