For My Country? Young Latinos in the Military
This subject has been cross-posted to the Latino/Hispanic Forum:

iTunes is offering for free this powerful video documentary on the recruitment of young Latino men and women for the US Military. It's produced by Mun2 News Specials. Here's the description in their words:

'"For my country? Latinos in the military" explores the options Latino youth face when they graduate high school and the factors that lead many to choose the military. The special looks at the issue through the eyes of young people including students, new recruits, activists and Iraq war veterans. "For My Country" provides crucial insight and facts for teens, families and anyone interested in the current debate about military recruitment in our schools.'

You'll need to have iTunes to be able to download this, but the iTunes software is free. In addition, you can play it using Quicktime software, so you don't need to have a video iPod for this either. The video documentary is filmed in English. Here's the link:
