The other is a generational actor known for portraying presidents, global icons like Nelson Mandela and even God — twice.
Freeman made a stop at the Pentagon to promote an upcoming documentary he executive produced on the battalion, set to be released this month. It includes interviews Freeman conducted with Austin and one of the last surviving members of the 761st, who is now in his late 90s.
