This is extremely powerful. Don't believe in this war at all. Many reasons...sharing this on my FB page--
My nephew Zachary Livesay was a part of this original 173rd Battle company Sebastian wrote about. Sebastian was also a part of a ABC Night Line exclusive special and a few Vanity Fair articles on the Restrepo outpost. This is as real as it gets. Movies like Hurt Locker are glamorized but Restrepo is a huge dose of the true reality of life for our men in Afganistan.
Thank you Sebastian!

In the documentary trailer embedded above (with NSFW language), journalist and author Sebastian Junger joined British photographer Tim Hetherington in one of the deadliest war zones on earth. Together, they created Restrepo--the winner of the 2010 Sundance Film Festival documentary grand jury prize.
