Warren County to Host Film Screening of The Six Triple Eight, Honoring Veterans, and Postal Workers
This celebration is a powerful opportunity to remember the past, uplift present-day service members and workers, and inspire future generations.
The Warren County Veterans Services Office is proud to present “A Legacy Worth Delivering: Honoring the 6888th Battalion” – a special community tribute celebrating the heroic service of the only all-Black, all-female unit deployed overseas during World War II, while also recognizing the continued service of Veterans and Postal Workers past and present.
The event will be held on Sunday, July 27, 2025, at Seven Springs Farm and Vineyard in Norlina, North Carolina. Doors open at 2:00 PM, with the program beginning at 3:00 PM featuring a screening of The Six Triple Eight, a moving film that captures the legacy of the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion. Attendees will enjoy dinner during the screening, followed by a brief recognition program honoring the contributions of Veterans and Postal Workers – whose dedication and sacrifice mirror the spirit of the 6888th.
“The women of the 6888th answered the call in a time of both war and inequality. Their courage, efficiency, and commitment to duty helped restore morale across the military. Today, we carry their legacy forward by honoring not only them, but all those who have served in uniform and in the U.S. Postal Service,” said Jamytta Bell, Warren County Veteran Service Officer.
The event is free and open to the public, but registration is required to ensure seating and meal preparation. Please RSVP by July 10, 2025, at clicking here or by calling (252) 257-3385, Monday–Friday, 10:00 AM–3:00 PM.
Sponsored by the Warren County Veterans Services Office, this celebration is a powerful opportunity to remember the past, uplift present-day service members and workers, and inspire future generations.
