DESCRIPTION:
(from History's press release, October 2017) HISTORY is honoring veterans with a special four-hour Veterans Day marathon event of its original docuseries "The Warfighters" produced by Peter Berg's Film 45. Driven by first-person accounts, the unnarrated series chronicles recent U.S. Special Operations Forces missions in the global war on terror as it gives viewers an inside and candid look at the realities of war. The series is largely made in part by veterans with over 90 veterans participating in the production. "The Warfighters," premieres with four back-to-back new episodes on Saturday, November 11 beginning at 8pm ET/PT. The United States Special Operations Forces are some of the most highly trained troops in the world and they have been fighting the global war on terror for over sixteen years - the longest ongoing conflict in American history. Army Rangers, Green Berets, Marines, and Navy SEALs are among the brave that operate at the tip of the spear combating terrorism. "The Warfighters" is an authentic, powerful portrayal of the high-stakes environment that these service members must operate in and the challenges they face from doing so. Each episode includes intimate interviews, action-packed cinematic sequences and original footage and images from the real operations in Afghanistan and Iraq. This series represents the human experience of war; true stories of sacrifice, bravery, brotherhood, heroism and above all, honor. |
