I found this experience to be quite humbling and my heart went out to these men and women. They showed me how exactly they had been manipulated into choosing war, and now I feel quite foolish for previously failing to understand.
Interestingly, we decided to watch this on Netflix after learning today that our neighbor's son decided to join the military. :-/
