The Wereth Eleven
The Wereth Eleven – World Premiere!

The Wereth Eleven retraces the steps taken by eleven African American GIs from the 333rd Field Artillery Battalion when their unit was overrun by Germans at the start of the Battle of the Bulge. Their 10-mile trek from their battery position to Wereth, Belgium would be the last journey of their lives as a local resident turned them in to an SS scouting party.
Subsequently all eleven were butchered and killed in one of the least understood and unknown war crimes of WWII.
