About this Event
Free Event"Infused with dark humor, patriotism, pop culture and VA medication," DISCHARGED shows military branches poking fun at each other’s expense while also showing the bond that is formed, no matter which branch our brothers & sisters served. Whether you are male or female, Army, Navy, Air Force or Marine Corps, DISCHARGED shows how veterans come together as a family. Currently in film festival rotation, DISCHARGED won the Best Pilot Category at the 2018 Hoboken International Film Festival. Read more about Discharged at the film's site.
