This is not a typical documentary film, but it is more documentary than just about all documentary films: there is not much by way of narrative, but there is a lot of documenting. The soldiers are the only ones who address the viewer…

Ought to help neutralize some of the mythology being generated to glorify US troops in these presidential wars being fought for nothing at all. These guys volunteered to be there and were all foaming at the mouth to get a chance to kill…

Great documentary about an outpost in remote area of Afghanistan. If you want to know about tactical decisions and firefight situations, this video will show you.

This is a good documentary on an American outpost in Afghanistan. I thought the camera work was too zoomed in during the interviews but overall done very well. Very sad to see how young these guys are and how the rest of their lives are…

I grew up with John Wayne movies, apocalpse now,deer hunter, platoon and the hurt locker. they all seem like artist interpretations now. this is not a political film but as a veteran I feel there must be a better way of using our finest…

This is one of the best documentaries I have ever seen. It is basically a bunch of soldiers in the Korengal Valley fighting for their lives, friends and country. Sebastian Junger also wrote a book called "War" that covers his time with…

Nobody should forget the consequences of war but due to our human nature it will be forever unavoidable unless we all become one world and one human race.

This is a raw, unfiltered, soldier's eye view of the many challenges (emotional, mental, physical and spiritual) inherent in enduring deployment to Afghanistan. The constant fear and stress of never knowing when, where and how the enemy…
