The Ground Truth : The
Human Cost Of War
Sometimes the greatest act of courage is to tell the truth
In the opening scenes of Patricia Foulkrod's
powerful documentary, we're introduced to a number of young soldiers who speak
candidly and powerfully about the motivations that led them to
join the military. As their stories unfold, we hear their
surprised reactions to boot camp and combat training as they
were taught to dehumanize their enemy, to "kill hadjis and
ragheads."
"The Ground Truth" is a documentary that
should be watched by everyone who has a friend, relative or
loved one who's served--or is about to serve--in Iraq and
Afghanistan.
