UPDATE: This video is a Wilamette Week’s Film Pick for this weekend:
An absolutely heartbreaking documentary featuring the pain and grief of a handful of Oregon military families who have lost loved ones in Iraq. Much of the film is taken up with candid accounts of the needless waste of human life and the anger of those who feel that their patriotism has been abused. This film is the perfect antidote to the “support our troops” mentality that equates support for our people in uniform with support for our government’s foreign-policy decisions. JAMES WALLING.
