I covered part of the Restrepo/Second Platoon of Battle Company of the 173rd Airborne Brigade story on my other blog earlier in the year, now it’s a documentary called Restrepo. The film covers Sebastian Junger, a veteran war correspondent and author of several books, including “The Perfect Storm,” and Mr. Tim Hetherington, a longtime war photographer, and their 14 months in the Korangal Valley of Afghanistan.
