HISTORY SPECIAL
DEBUTS THE HISTORY CHANNEL
Los Angeles, CA (May 24, 2004) - L.A. Entertainment, Inc's CEO, Jim Ervin, has been contracted as co-composer for the music soundtrack to the History Channel's upcoming special "D-Day: The Secret Massacre", as reported today. The special reveals how under two hundred soldiers and the citizens of the small French town of Graignes banded together to face and entire SS Panzer regiment of some 2,000 troops, holding off the German force for nearly a week. In the end, out manned and under-armed, the survivors fled, trusting that the Geneva Convention would protect the wounded, left behind with the medical officer in the local church. Instead, the SS extracted a brutal revenge on the remnants of the force that had withheld them so valiantly.
"This is a little known, riveting story of heroism and retribution that took place during World War II," expressed Jim Ervin. "Our goal with the soundtrack was to musically relate how this engagement helped contribute to one of D-Day's crucial victories. The scoring of music to picture will consist of both orchestral and military elements that are reminiscent of that era."
The special will debut on the History Channel, June 1st at 9pm. For additional information, please visit The History Channel.
