How to build a "warrior culture" -- PBS showed us how tonight, via The Marines. Great stuff: informative, sobering, and inspiring, including the USMC martial arts instructor who lost both hands and returned to duty as a trainer. Check it out on your local PBS station.
"How the Warrior Culture is engrained and how it sets the Marines apart from other armed services branches are critical aspects of Marine development and understanding," said producer/writer/director John Grant. "This program offers an in-depth and unvarnished look at the rigorous physical and psychological training employed to create this tenaciously loyal, highly skilled breed of combatant ready to defend country and comrade at any cost."
Of note: the film is dedicated to Jason Dunham, recently honored with the Medal of Honor, posthumously.
