  • Inspiring Story Of Survival Against The Odds

    5
    By Spuds Mothersbaugh
    Very powerful documentary on the courage of men and their fight for survival under extreme conditions. One of the consultants and commentators for this film is Hampton Sides, author of "Ghost Soldiers" and other books. Historical footage is woven together well with testimony from surviving veterans. A moving story of how they made it out alive when the odds were really stacked against them.
