FROM THE USO of Hampton Roads
USO of Hampton Roads Hosts Movie Night at Ft. Eustis for Wounded Warriors on Memorial Day Road to Recovery Ride
Award-Winning Film Brothers at War to be shown free of charge to military personnel and their families
(Virginia Beach, VA – May 28, 2009) – The USO of Hampton Roads is proud to host Movie Night for the Ft. Eustis military community and the Wounded Warriors who are in the final days of completing their Memorial Day Ride to Recovery Tour from Washington DC to Virginia Beach.
WHAT: BROTHERS AT WAR is an intimate portrait of an American family during a turbulent time. Jake Rademacher sets out to understand the experience, sacrifice, and motivation of his two brothers serving in Iraq. The film follows Jake's exploits as he risks everything—including his life—to tell his brothers' story. Often humorous, but sometimes downright lethal, BROTHERS AT WAR is a remarkable journey where Jake embeds with four combat units in Iraq. Unprecedented access to US and Iraqi combat units take him behind the camouflage curtain with secret reconnaissance troops on the Syrian border, into sniper "hide sites" in the Sunni Triangle, through raging machine gun battles with the Iraqi Army. Ultimately, the film follows his brothers home where separations and life-threatening work ripple through their parents, siblings, wives, and children. BROTHERS AT WAR is a rare look at the bonds and service of our soldiers on the frontlines and the profound effects their service has on the loved ones they leave behind.
