The PrisonerMoazzam Begg talked about his experiences as a detainee at Guantanamo and in prisons in Afghanistan. It was an opportunity to hear directly from a former prisoner. His story was moving and put a voice and face behind the many detainees wrongfully held. 
Third Time AroundWe get a glimpse into the lives of soldiers at home and at war. The youth and commitment of these soldiers is striking. 
Afghanistan: The Forgotten WarProducer Bill Gentile spent time with a marine unit in southern Afghanistan and brought us powerful images of marines being fired at and firing back at an ambiguous enemy. It's a look at how the war is being fought, where the efforts to build relationships and trust with the community is vital to success.
