Using real footage from multiple cameras, including helmet cams, these Citizen Soldiers give the audience an intimate view into the chaos and horrors of combat and, in the process, display their bravery and valor under the most hellish of conditions.

Movie information in first post provided by The Movie Database
Citizen Soldier gave a real and detailed look at what National Guard soldiers went through in Afghanistan. The documentary used powerful and real-life footage that leaves a strong impact, showing the true price of the freedom we often don't think about in our day to day lives. It drew me into the soldiers' lives, showing both their struggles and successes and what they really faced. The way it showed their hardships and feelings felt very honest and, at times, moving.

If someone wants to know what it's like to be in the military, Citizen Soldier depicts it very well. It's definitely a documentary worth watching.
