Generation Kill

In the northern desert of Kuwait, First Recon Marines prepare to invade Iraq as the "tip of the spear" for Operation Iraqi Freedom.

Having survived its first trial by fire, Bravo is ordered to capture an airstrip controlled by Iraq's Republican Guard.

As they scope a tiny hamlet, the men of Bravo are frustrated by the capricious nature of the war, and Colbert struggles to defend the actions of the higher-ups.

Bravo reaches Baghdad, where the men are shocked by the sheer size and scope of the city. As their time there comes to an end, the Marines take inventory and reflect — even as tensions boil over and disaster strikes.
