and honest about the crappy treatment of vets.

How true. One of the saddest scenes in the movie was the soldier being wheeled through the airport...and being ignored.

WARNING TO LURKERS:
DON'T READ UNLESS YOU'VE SEEN THE MOVIE. POSSIBLE SPOILER ALERT!!!



I don't know if I'm reading too much into this...AND I don't think this is a spoiler...
But the next time you see the film (in case you didn't notice),
read the sign over the door at the end of the airport hallway the soldier is being wheeled
down.

I think it was sending a nice, subtle message about the status assigned to a lot of the
returning vets.

Yep, that scene wrecked me pretty well too.
