XLrator Media will be releasing the Mike Peters documentary Man In The Camo Jacket on VOD and iTunes on July 4th.
Mike Peters seems to be a kind, wonderful person, who helps inspire his fellow man. He should have gotten a better documentary than Man in the Camo Jacket. The film isn’t bad, it’s just there, with its incredible subject matter, and only that.
