Never before seen footage: 1st and 3rd Ranger Battalions in combat

A new documentary released by Joe Joynt depicts Rangers assigned to 1st and 3rd Ranger Battalions in combat in Afghanistan.  During the course of these deployments, Rangers Justin Allen and Jonathan Peney tragically lost their lives.  This short documentary reminds Americans that we are still at war in Afghanistan, a war that many would like to sweep under the rug and pretend doesn’t exist.
