This documentary, just released, chronicles the experience of B Company, 2nd Battalion, 503rd Infantry Regiment, 173rd Airborne during their 15-month tour in Afghanistan's Koregal Valley in 2007.
The footage, shot by journalists embedded with the company's 2nd Platoon operating out of a hilltop OP named after one of their medics who was killed, tells their story and doesn't pull any punches. This is the best movie I've seen about what it's like for soldiers fighting in today's wars in the Middle East.
This movie is what The Hurt Locker was supposed to have been and at which it failed miserably.
