  • DOD, Army Help Set Scene for American Heroes in '15
    A6 APG News • Thursday, February 15, 2018 DOD, Army help set scene for American heroes in ‘15:17 to Paris’ movie U.S. ARMY PHOTO BY CAPT. LESLIE REED, OREGON MILITARY DEPARTMENT From left, Alek Skarlatos, Spencer Stone, Oregon Army National Guard Brig. Gen. William J. Prendergast, and Anthony Sadler pose for a photo outside the pre-screening of the movie “15:17 to Paris” at Century Arden 14 in Sacramento, California, Jan. 20, 2018. By Katie Lange Defense Media Activity WASHINGTON— Every year, Holly- wood releases a few blockbuster movies based on true stories of U.S. service members, and the upcoming “15:17 to Paris,” directed by thelegendary Clint Eastwood,is no exception. What makes this one unique, though, is that all three men who were the real-life heroes play themselves in the movie. The film “15:17 to Paris” is about Spencer Stone, Aleksander Skarlatos and Anthony Sadler — three childhood friends who stopped a gunman on a Paris-bound train in August 2015, preventing the loss of innocent lives. The trio was internationally praised for their heroics. Since Stone was an Air Force airman and Skarlatos was an Oregon Army National Guard specialist at the time, their military training helped guide them in their actions. That gets depicted in the movie too, so naturally, the Defense Department helped provide as much accuracy as possible. The bulk of the scenes involving Stone in his Air Force uniform were filmed at Robins Air Force Base, Georgia, even though the movie depictshis time at Fort SamHouston, Texas. The filming at Robins only lasted one day, but it took nearly two weeks to build the sets and dress the base up to look like Fort Sam Houston.

The attack was thwarted by the brave efforts of US Service Members Spencer Stone, of the Air Force, and Alek Skarlatos, of the Oregon National Guard, along with Anthony Sadler and two others, a French national and a Briton who charged, tackled and subdued the suspect. The three childhood friends were vacationing in Europe and have since been awarded the Legion of Honor, France’s highest honor, for their roles in thwarting the attack. Air Force Airman Spencer Stone ran at the gunman and sustained injuries from Spencer Stone leaving the central hospital in Lille, France one day after the shooting multiple stabbings with a box cutter. An additional three people were injured in the attack, including one gunshot wound victim, who is in stable condition. Stone also provided El-Khazzani subdued by passengers on board the train. medical care following the incident and checked the train cars for additional weapons.
