A diverse group of currently serving members of the U.S. Army speak to the effects of deployment during war.

They express the meaning of service, sacrifice and honor. They talk of lost comrades whom they will never forget. They prove to be a reflection of America, as one so movingly states, ‘We’re you, you’re us’.
