The reality for those serving in the Gulf War.

Sandy Strait has produced a unique documentary of what it was like for the many American men and women serving in the Persian Gulf. Using a technique developed to explain the Viet Nam conflict to high school students, 21 American military members representing all branches of the service and across the spectrum of ranks answer questions regarding their thoughts, feelings, and experiences leading up to, during the war, and upon their return home. Additonal sections deal with important issues related to hometown support, personal lessons learned and Gulf War Illness.Contained in these interviews are the honest, simple words of active duty and reserve/national guard soldiers alike, who left communities and familes to serve in a war because it was their duty.War changes an individual in ways visible and unseen alike. What goes on, what is thought about, what are the fears....read for yourself what it was like.
