Over the years, I have been honored to see THE BORINQUENEERS adopted by educators, libraries and organizations throughout the United States to spotlight the service of the 65th Infantry Regiment. For much of that time, the film was distributed primarily on DVD, which served the educational community well.

As the world has increasingly moved toward digital collections and streaming-based access, I began receiving more requests seeking online availability. To meet that need, I am pleased to announce that THE BORINQUENEERS is now available for educational / institutional streaming through New Day Films.

Learn more and view licensing options here:
https://www.newday.com/films/the-borinqueneers

THE BORINQUENEERS is available in:
• English and Spanish versions
• Feature-length and one-hour formats
• Newly upscaled 4K presentation quality
• Multiple educational licensing options, including Life-of-File streaming licenses
• Educational Study Guide available

My hope is that this new streaming access will inspire even more people to learn about these extraordinary soldiers and engage with an often-overlooked chapter of American history.

Of course, for home personal use, the DVD will still be available for purchase for personal home use on our website at www.borinqueneers.com.

Thank you for helping keep the legacy of the Borinqueneers alive.
