American Veteran - What2Watch

The new episode "The Mission" examines how military life shapes service members in unexpected, often even profound ways. Among the personal stories are those of a young Coast Guard recruit charged with ferrying soldiers to fight – and in many cases, die – on D-Day; a Nevada-based pilot who remotely guided armed bomber drones over Afghanistan; and a young Marine who rose to become the first Latina general. U.S. Sen. Tammy Duckworth hosts this hour.
