Finding our way through the fog of war...

16 suicides, 15 convicted soldiers and 11 killings, tripled arrest rates for Ft. Carson soldiers in the first five years since the Irag War began. Clearly, something is going on. Many of the most violent crimes involved men who had served in the same battalion in Iraq. FRONTLINE tells the dark tale of the men of Third Platoon, Charlie Company, 1st battalion of the 506th infantry and how the war followed them home. It is a story of heroism, grief, and a powerful portrait of what multiple tours and post-traumatic stress are doing to a generation of young American soldiers...The Wounded Platoon tonight at 9pm.
