Excellent documentary 20 mins long and well worth it.

3. Watched it till it froze on me but saw enough to be overcome with sadness.
It is so terribly sad to see those young men who have to go through the rest of their lives with the terrible memories of this illegal war. What infuriates me, is that I have never seen ANYTHING of this movement of war veterans against the war on CNN! As I'm writing this, CNN has their usual crappy time waster going on....They can't spare a few minutes of air time to cover a little portion of the veterans anti-war activities?...Shame on CNN and all of the American networks for the disservice they are doing the American people! These people deserve to be seen and heard on American TV, not just on the BBC or the CBC!

4. Wow. Watched the whole 22+ minutes.
Let's hope it gets picked up by Frontline or other American broadcaster.
