The Ground Truth - Movie showing
The Ground Truth is a provocative and highly regarded film which profiles a number of men and women who have served the armed forces in Iraq, focusing on the challenges they each faced once they returned home. The movie challenges us to "support our troops by listening to their stories" and gives a clearer picture of the cost of war--not just its dollar cost, but the toll it takes on the lives of those who fight it.
