It is instead, about young warriors who are still fighting their own inner battles, when the gunfire is silent and the battlefields are thousands of miles away. -Rev. Bill McDonald, founder of the Military Writer’s Society of America and author of A Spiritual Warrior’s Journey I was blown away by Chris Martini’s “Trooper.” It stirred a myriad of emotions in me that, as a veteran, I haven’t felt before. It’s a powerful yet sensitive film that hits its mark like a freight train, then provocatively presses further on points about veterans easily overlooked. Viewers will identify with this story; it bridges the gap between two generations of military service. Every veteran — no — every American, should see this film. - LTC Raymond (Ray) Morris U.S. Army Special Forces (ret) This movie is neither for the war or against it. It is 100% for the troops. - Christopher Neff, Former Lance Corporal, USMC, Infantry OIF 2003-2005 Someone once said that ‘War is Hell’ referring to the actual combat situation. Many times the hell begins after the tour of combat is over. Chris has done a great job portraying that in TROOPER….In watching the film the combat veteran realizes that he is not alone in his struggle and those around him understand a little better why he is as he is. Now let the healing begin. - Ed Beesley, USMC, Vietnam Veteran and author of Lucky Enough Credits: Written, Directed, and Produced by Christopher Martini Executive Producers Giada Dobrzenska Richard A.
