Sequel to the more famous documentary 'Restpo', both films follow the same group of U.S. solders in the Korengal Valley area of Afghanistan in the late oughts. While I have not seen the first film, which was about their first tour in the area, it is not necessary to understanding this one. A slice of life look at a small part of our ill fated war, at first I wasn't too thrilled to be watching, I respect military service but have a hard time relating to it. However this film grew on me as I got to know it's subjects personalities more and gained a better sense of the situation there. ***
