Default Restrepo...

Viewed "Restrepo" last evening....it's the Oscar nominated documentary about a lone firebase on an isolated hilltop in the Korengal Valley in Afghanistan.

Riveting stuff...never viewed anything like it b/4.

A little background from NBC News about the area...and a short trailer from the film.
