For those who have Netflix it is now available to stream, this was shown on Nat Geo unedited of a Marine base camp in Afghanistan. When I say unedited, there were no bleeping.

Watched it on Nat Geo. Very nicely put together I thought and captured the emotion very well. I have an immense respect for all those who serve / served.

Just finished watching Restrepo. I don't even know what to say. I cannot fathom being in those situations.
Thanks again Ken for the suggestion.

Yeah thanks Ken! I have two sons in the Army and have done multiple tours in Afghanistan and Iraq. They're not the same when they come back. I've aged alot since they've been in. :)
Eye opener to actually see what they go through on a daily basis.

I watched it a few weeks ago. Great documentary. That's the same land that gave Alexander the Great such a fit, and the only time his campaign bogged down.

Great documentary. Hard to watch if you've "seen the elephant" but still very well done. Before I actually went to war, I thought war movies were cool - now they just make me angry.
