BODY OF WAR opens in many cities this weekend - DON'T MISS IT!!
It is probably THE most important film to date about the war on Iraq and its effect on one of our soldiers. It is a very powerful and intimate portrait of Tomas Young, who was hit by a sniper's bullet while he rode in an uncovered and overloaded truck on his 5th day of duty in Iraq. Tomas was paralyzed from the chest down. He has been an important voice in IVAW since he came home from Iraq.
