For anyone who is interested, Operation Homecoming will be airing on Documentary Channel Sunday, July 8th at 8 PM. I'll definitely be watching! What I like about Operation Homecoming is that it gives a well-written, real life account of the men and women fighting wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. The poems and short stories being read were absolutely heartbreaking. I remember one poem, "Things a Soldier Should Know", was a list of everything this particular soldier wished he had known before going to the war. The part of that poem that struck me the most was "The people smiling in the street could be celebrating over your dead body tomorrow." This movie is an excellent education for the American public of the true nature of war.
