A note from Gene Greenberg

We are very pleased to tell you A PROMISE TO OUR FATHERS will be released on DVD in March. The DVD release will include a “Special Feature.”

During the production of the film we traveled to Cameron twice, with crew in tow, to shoot our story. We all felt one of the important parts of this documentary was when Bill Pollard, in his role as a medic, was sent to Dachau after its liberation to treat the survivors. We all tried to get him to tell this story, but to him, remembering that time was too painful. We have hours of Bill Pollard on tape but Dachau is not part of it.

As you all know, this past October, Bill Pollard, Larry Pollard’s Dad and hero of the film, passed away. A few weeks after he had passed, the veterans home in Cameron sent Larry his personal effects. While going through his Dad’s belongings Larry found a letter he had written in April, 2020, recalling his experience at Dachau.

The letter was so powerful we have decided to produce it as a special feature to be included with the DVD.

You, our classmates, have been so supportive of what we have been doing. Your encouragement and comments have been so incredibly valuable to us, we wanted you to be the first to see The Letter.
