Kunjak Saturday Night

CLICK HERE FOR MOVIE

Spent a week in Helmand, Afghanistan with marines from the 1st Battalion, 2nd Marine Regiment and a small number of Afghan National Police living on a small, remote outpost. This is really out in the middle of nowhere and deep in the heart of Taliban country.

Most of the marines dispatched to this outpost for nearly five months have had little means of contact to the outside world. When I pulled out the iPhone 4, it was like showing fire to cavemen for the first time.

    My son was one of the Marines that spent his semester abroad at this remote outpost. Each time I try to watch this video I am told that it is unavaiable. What do I need to do to see it?
