    Watched this on nat geo on demand and found this to be extremely rivoting and being a veteran this made me mad at times at the enemy and sad at times for the young men for what they are going thru,simply an awesome documentory. This film makes me extremely proud of these young men and it definiately shows how brave they are. This film shows how resilant the american fighting man is when faced with danger on a daily basis koudos to all the young men and women in our armed forces.

    **** A documentary chronicling the 15 month deployment of a combat unit in Afghanistan. The group establishes a forward position in the dangerous Korengal Valley, losing friends along the way. A film that will bring the viewer into the Afghan conflict, understanding the difficulties our fighting men face on a daily basis.

    Yes   |   No
