An emotional rollercoaster

This short is extremely well done. PTSD is very real, and oftentimes veterans are already experiencing it when they go into the service. This story jumps back and forth between what soldiers are going through on the front lines, mixed in with memories from past events, and weaves into the clever ending of this framed narrative. I won't give too much away, but I left the theater crying. A must see.
