Lightbulb Understanding

I thought the movie gave a good understanding of the pain both physical and emotional that our young soldiers go through when in battle and recovery after battle. We are truly indebted to these young people who get wounded. When I was about 12 years old I went on rounds with my father in the hospital for returning soldiers in WWII. Some had bones showing in legs with mesh protecting them, some were blind, some were trying to walk, and a host of all other injuries. If his actions saved one life or protected one soldier from a major injury then he is a hero. Everyone should see the movie in order to get a good understanding of what it means when a 20 year old is sent to the middleast to fight these psychopaths. They are not terrorists they are psychopaths, that have no conscience.
