The 4th annual MilBlog conference kicked off April 24 with a bunch of bang-bang last night as Bouhammer introduced the first “world premier” of the docu-film “At War.” For many of the 150 bloggers and bloggerfans in attendance at the Westin Arlington Gateway hotel just outside DC it was a bit of a time warp — remembrances of deployments or embeds past — and for others it was a vivid, violent, frustrating, heartwarming window into the world of the troops these bloggers write and care about.
As TSO from This Ain’t Hell said: “I thought I was having flash backs…”
Here’s a tidbit of the well-done movie shot and directed by Scott Kesterson, a former building contractor who at 41 decided it was time to be a war correspondent/blogger, which will have a limited release across the United States.

are effin serious can we get a delete of the below comment from that spamer…
Sweet man looks awsome
If I hear Vietnam War era music in another War of Terror video, I’m going to go ballistic. Dammit, can’t we get some Slipknot? Disturbed? Metallica? Snoop or DMX even?
We don’t listen to this crap and it doesn’t define our struggles. It doesn’t define our era. Hell, play BYOB from System of a Down. It maybe an anti-war song, but at least it’s talking about ours. Christ . . .
we should put all those flu-infected mexican swine to good use by loading up all those pigs into C-17s and dumping them all over the Taliban-infested areas in Pakistan and Afghanistan.
Indestructable by Disturbed :D
Throwing flu-infected pigs into Pakistan/Afghanistan would do little more than insult people.
Islam considers the pig to be notoriously filthy creatures, which they are, albeit tasty.
Really Vietnam era music?! Once again, it is depressing to see people try to equate one conflict to another. Taliban and Al Qada want to kill every non Muslim, the most committed wins, and you cannot kill with kindness.
Hey ZMonster, apparently you don’t know your music. That is modern-day music from a modern day Indie band that was not even alive when Vietnam going on. Why don’t YOU quit looking back and start looking forward. Get with it dude.
