I lurk more than I speak on social media
I am, unfortunately, not a cat with sunglasses
I don't know much from the media side of this, but I'm intrigued. Gonna have to dive into it while I'm on break.

There's also common threads linking WW2 to Vietnam to the GWOT. Fascism is replaced by communism replaced by the "impending threat of Islam." There's also the idea of the US arriving and "liberating" areas under the control of the oppressive regimes.

Could that be a byproduct of the interconnected nature of the wars in the 20th century? Because the events of one war set the stage for the next since WWI, and so the memory of each war flows into the next with relative ease.

It's definitely right up my alley, then. And it was apparently filmed in the Caddo Lake area, which is not too far from where I'm at now. Love finding gems like this.

National Guard vs. Cajuns. Ought to be an interesting watch if nothing else. Gonna have to add it to my list.
