This is a documentary about a village in Alaska that produced a disproportionate high number of soldiers that went to war in Vietnam.
They were all Native Americans.
They experienced discrimination growing up, many also felt it after the War in having their fishing livelihood compromised. Add the public negativity felt by many Vietnam vets after coming home, PTSD, depression, alcohol & drug addiction, suicide, etc. And you'd expect these men to be completely embittered.
They were not.
Splendid Americans. I've never seen better.
Watch this movie and learn.
