Dallas, TX, August 25, 2025 --(PR.com)-- New documentary chronicles the vision, courage, and community that brought the Museum to life in Arlington, Texas.
DHD Films today announced the premiere of its latest documentary, Valor & Victory: The Making of the National Medal of Honor Museum, a 30-minute film that traces the extraordinary, multi-year journey to establish a permanent home honoring our nation’s bravest service members.
Featuring first-person accounts from Medal of Honor recipients and behind-the-scenes access to museum champions, architects, civic leaders, and veterans, Valor & Victory reveals how conviction and collaboration propelled the Museum from aspiration to reality in Arlington, Texas. The film also highlights the museum’s striking design, conceived by the late, world-renowned architect Rafael Viñoly, and the people whose dedication ensured the vision would endure.
“This project is a testament to courage in all its forms, on the battlefield, in city halls, at design tables, and across communities that refused to let the story of valor fade,” said Shezad Manjee, Founder & Chief Creative Officer of DHD Films and the film’s executive producer. “Valor & Victory captures not only how the Museum was made, but why it matters, today and for generations to come.”
The documentary charts the Museum’s competitive site-selection process, the decisive role of Arlington’s civic and business community, and the way leaders and cultural icons rallied public awareness, among them Medal of Honor recipients whose voices anchor the film’s emotional core, President George W. Bush, Roger Staubach, Charlotte Jones, and Chris Cassidy. The narrative underscores the Museum’s mission to educate, inspire, and unite through stories of uncommon valor and service.
