Really hard to watch but just excellent. Kudos to F.W.

I went through basic in 1970. I joined the Air Force and went to Lackland. I guess I expected something similar here but hey, these guys were staying a week longer and going into armor and perhaps immediate combat. I got a four year deferment for college and was more like 22 than 18-19. You can plainly see these kids are not ready to be thrown in there with claymores and M16s. Some are close maybe. Most, I don't think so. All the propaganda, all the patriotism, all the positive thinking can't overcome the reality of this video. It's really hard to watch. HIs film called Meat showing animal slaughter, the hospital one, the mental ward stuff, all really hard to watch. Should we not avert our eyes? This is strong stuff and should be required viewing in school but won't because its reality is to awful to contemplate. Isn't that ironic?
