Winter Soldier

Iraq and Afghanistan

Winter Soldier: Iraq and Afghanistan featured testimony from U.S. veterans who served in those occupations, giving an accurate account of what is really happening day in and day out, on the ground. This four-day event brought together veterans from across the country to testify about their experiences in Iraq and Afghanistan - and present video and photographic evidence. In addition, panels of scholars, veterans, journalists, and other specialists gave context to the testimony. These panels covered everything from the history of the GI resistance movement to the fight for veterans' health benefits and support.

Join us at 6:30pm on Tuesday, July 15th in the Children's Room of the Montgomery County South Regional Library (next door to Woodlands Pavilion) at 2101 Lake Robbins Drive in the Woodlands. We will begin promptly at 7:pm so that a discussion can follow.
