I'm used to the fact that with this kind of series you usually only see and hear what they want you to. But calling this a documentary in the first place is mocking. This is the most scripted documentary I have ever seen. They quotes are always repeated to the letter in every episode. In one case you even had a soldier looking to the camera before asking a question in a meeting. They probably had his lines written on a cardboard. The american officers say about 10 times every episode that they don't have boots on the ground. It's the Iraqis that do all the fighting on the frontline. You know the quotes, you've heard them for years. And of course every soldier wants to be there and the ones who aren't would like to trade places. They scenes with this think tank are almost comical in appearance as it is so obvious they are choreographed. I don't want to downplay the efforts of the soldiers or the hardships they have to endure by filling out their orders. They are doing what they are being told, that is their job. This is purely about the show. I love to watch NatGeo docus but this time they were led through the ring on a leash. I didn't finish this.
