Restrepo is a documentary that has been nominated for an Oscar and for Spirit Award for Best Documentary . It may well win tonight or tomorrow. The documentary follows 15 troops who have been assigned to a remote outpost in Afghanistan's Kornegal Valley. To be deployed in this valley to be assigned to one of the most deadliest locations. The outpost Restrepo is named for a medic that was killed there. The camera crew is embedded with the platoon for the entire year. The film shows the boredom, the isolation, the fear, the lonely and the brotherhood of the troops. The only troops interviewed are those on assignment at the outpost. Restrepo shows it like really is and every American should see how it really is for this brave young men.
And for any military or their families reading this, thank you for all your sacrifices. It is greatly appreciated.
