I just received this from my cousin who was in the Vietnam War. He lets me know when special things pop up someone might like to see. I don't have HBO but for those of you that do here is the synopsis of the true story about one of our heroes.

This movie is based on an essay that was included in one of my favorite books "Operation Homecoming" (see this thread).

The original essay is here. If you read it (and I think you should!) bring hankies - it's intensely moving.
