Let There Be Light (1946) Post Traumatic Stress Disorder

Let There Be Light (1946) — known to the U.S. Army as PMF 5019 — is a documentary film directed by American filmmaker John Huston, while serving in the U.S. ...

SFC David Reid, M.S, PHR, SHRM-CP, DTM yes, I have seen a few of them. One of my favorites is five came back. Five different directors who went to war in World War II and how they came back changed. One of the documentaries that was censored by the US war department or military was one concerning returning veterans with PTSD. It featured very intellectual black soldiers ( this is not exclusively about black soldiers but I just know that it was an even-handed and not just all white /caucasian) talking candidly to the camera.

Thunderbolt (1947 film)

Thunderbolt is a 1947 film directed by William Wyler and John Sturges which documented the American aerial operations of Operation Strangle in World War II, ...

This is kind of an early Top Gun movie from 1947. You hear the Sea Hunt actor Lloyd Bridges as the narrator. They put small 8 mm cameras on the cockpit, wings and this is kind of like the best close air support movie done from World War ii. If you skip the intro and just go to the strafing runs, this is actually enjoyable unless you are the Germans receiving 50 caliber machine gun fire, rockets and bombs being dropped from a p-47.

I can't wait to see this! We need more moviemakers to show what contributions were made from all groups in our society! All to often, somethings are created just based on box appeal!
