I served with Caleb Travis at 2D LAR alpha company. Former sgt Zach McGee here if you read this. Always thought you were a super humble individual for being such a salt dog. Semper fi men.
Travis is solid. Thank you for commenting.
As a 46 year old civilian from SW Louisiana….this choked me up!
“…before they call to mom, before they call to God….they call to Doc….!”
I’ve been following everything I can find, 7 days a week, for the last 15+ years and have heard a lot of stories about different scenarios, but there are some that just puts you in a headlock! But these stories about not only the soldiers that gave ALL!…but the ones that were there with them and have to come home without them, just gets to me..(pisses me off)!…it blows my mind how much the government AND the military brass has failed these awesome human beings! Thank you people so much!
Great stories and will be saving and rewatching this one!
“What a Navy Corpsman is” was a very moving depiction of the responsibility every Corpsman and medic who’s served directly with a team feels.
As a former 82nd ACo 1-505, i love the fact that the United States Marines are on our side. Nothing but respect for the Devil Dogs. 🇺🇲
much respect for marines!
God Bless you all and their families,
Thank you for this brother
Couldn’t find the opening poem anywhere online, so here is it here ( as best as I could tell)
and if this be the day may i equip myself well and face towards the evil while it drags me to hell and if by chance i should fall by bullet or shell may the people away be able to tell that i did not surrender nor turn from the fight and when i did die i did not stay quiet but faced with defiance with eyes full of ire and never did flinch when called from beyond

Send this to BRCC, I like to think Logan would be proud his cinematic ideology influenced you if that’s true. Much resembles for the 25. Great doc brother.
Thanks brother. This whole doc project started off in my head as a working title I called “The Six Pack Diaries” where I would sit down with a vet and split a six pack and talk on camera about the war kind of like a postcast. That was back in 2010ish though and never happened. Then, Postea Bellum began as a film project in film school in 2015 and was going to be interviews with combat footage B roll in the background. That was not the right time to make it though. I was on a ton of meds from getting hurt and retired and I was not in a good place mentally to do a doc about the war that soon after getting out. I also had no one besides myself to interview- so I interviewed myself and that was bad. I looked like a drugged out zombie and the meds were just rough. Today, with all the tech changes I am able to get hard drives shared from Japan and Iraq and interview people on zoom at my house or literally on a roller coaster at a theme park or while driving on the highway and it gets saved to the cloud and I have an AI app that can clean up video files and access to easily licensed music and all of this remote innovative stuff that we have really leaned on since Covid. I can combine all that with the hundreds of hours of video and tens of thousands of pics we have from those deployments and it is a perfect storm and a documentary collection is a realistic and actionable project. So, we are telling our story of our unit in long form and short form docs. Along with that as we save these files we are creating a library of data for the future that we can make accessible as source material for academics or etc and we can have family and descendants be able to view and experience on their terms the lives that their service members had during the military.

If I was born a little more to the south I would enlist in the marine corps tuff luck.
I hear they'll let northerners in now.

Deployments are boring! No doc accurately portrays this. OIF 03-04
