Did anyone catch the documentary about Lima Company of the Ohio National Guard and their experiences in Iraq on A&E last night? Very touching. I have to admit it made me almost tear up.

We got waxed pretty good on more than one occasion.  I was only there till the middle of May, my Mom got sick and they let me come home, but those bastards wouldn't let me go back.

I didn't even know there was a show on.  Too busy playing BF2 I guess.

That's one of the best documentaries I've ever seen.  It's good to see what's really going on over there, instead of seeing it through the crappy coverage of the news outlets.  Their stories are amazing and it's one of the best informative piece's i've seen on the Iraq war yet.
It's truely amazing that these guys and girls just continue doing their job after lossing their best friend to some random sniper or ied.

I saw it and it was very moving.  I am proud of my fellow Marines who gave their lives for this great country of ours.  Damn proud of them.  I'm glad I was able to put on that uni for 7 years.  The Marine Corps is one big family.

I will never forget those guys and I am pissed at myself for having to leave early.  A couple of them would have loved this game, especially since one of them was a sniper.

Thanks dude.  I don't want to forget my British and Australian brothers.  Some of their blood is in the same sand.

I watched it last night and it was put together very well.  I am glad they used "real" footage and not the crap we see on TV news channels.  Thank you for telling me about it.  For those of you interested, I suggest you try and watch it, it gives a good glimpse of what actaully goes on in combat.
