NEW ROCHELLE, NY – On November 13, the James Plevritis-Joseph C. Keane Evzone Chapter #405 had the distinct pleasure of viewing the awarded and acclaimed documentary film Smyrna: Paradise is Burning, The Asa K. Jennings Story. The documentary was produced by Michael Damergis, who is a Brother of the Evzone Chapter and a professor at Iona University in New Rochelle.
