Very interesting article. But I don't think these issues are limited to returning veterans - I think there is a country-wide sense of confusion, disassociation, isolation, and lack of clear direction among many Americans - including those in their teens, 20's, 30's, and even beyond.
Drew Peneton has always had clear goals, focus, and the drive to ... See Morereach his goals, from an early age. These natural (or learned) abilities pre-date his military experience. There are skills he can share with all young Americans.

Marie There are so few venues for eye-opening doc's, so all are important. Usually, you have to attend the film festivals to see any of them.

It's head-scratching season again, which is to say: it's Oscar time. Last week, the shortlist of 15 documentaries being considered for the five Academy Award nominations was announced. And, sure enough, there were some head-scratchers out there.
