For those of you who enjoyed Generation Kill, this is along the same lines, but could be based on actual events, im not sure.

Looks good either way;

Had this on my sky box for a couple of weeks, gonna try and get round to watching it tomorrow.
AFAIK it is actual events rather than being based on them

its good - but very rushed.

Its about 50 minutes long, could easily have been double that without it getting boring.

Well worth a watch - like generation kill it gives a good idea about how most of the troops out there dont know what the fuck they are supposed to be doing, live in daily fear, and come back with pretty bad mental scars.

Just have no idea why they crammed so much good footage/interviews into such a short documentary

Just looked into this and sky put an edited version on skyplayer as well as the full version.

Bastards - thought it felt a bit rushed ... where do they get off editing an oscar winning doc in half without making it clear thats what I was watching.

I watched it earlier and really enjoyed it. As above, I thought it was rushed.
