ANNAPOLIS, Md. — Maryland Public Television will air “Honor Man: Remember the Life & Legacy of Lt. SEAL Brendan Looney” three times over the course of the month of July. The half hour documentary can be seen on July 4 at 11:00 pm, following the popular broadcast of “A Capitol Fourth”, as well as on July 5 at midnight and July 11 at 10:30 pm.
The film, produced by DeMatha High School and narrated by CBS’ James Brown, chronicles the life of Brendan Looney, a Navy SEAL who died in Afghanistan in 2010. The documentary takes a closer look at Looney’s life journey and the legacy he has left - one of six children born to Kevin and Maureen Looney; an overachieving athlete at DeMatha HS; the difference he made as a member of the Navy lacrosse team (alongside his brothers) that played in the 2004 NCAA Championship Game; his friendship with his Navy roommate Travis Manion, who died in Iraq in 2007; his acceptance into the Navy SEALS, being named Honor Man as the top candidate in his class; his death; his burial at Arlington next to Travis Manion; the tremendous outpouring of grief following his death; as well as the tributes that continue today, almost six years after his passing.
