Restrepo

I saw film at the Attfield Theatre called "Restrepo". It is about soldiers in afghanistan and how the death of the medical officer.

At one point in the film the commanding officer allows time for the men to pray. These men are literally in a life and death situation so it seemed to me that most of them did pray. The audience saw the effect that death has on them. One soldier could be seen wailing the death of one of his comrades. The film was made in the Korengal Valley. It is simply a look at how soldiers really are. I think that they face things emotionally that will never leave them
