The Iraq War, as seen solely through the eye of a soldier’s helmet cam depicts basic training, the boredom of dessert drills, the terror of an ambush and the camaraderie between fellow grunts. War is hell. A massive rescue mission goes off without a hitch until a sniper’s bullet hits our soldier.
Our camera’s POV sees the bullet come straight at us. As another soldier cradles our wounded man to the ground we suddenly see his face through the other soldier’s cam. We recognise his face. Camera dissolves to present day to find Ron our homeless asleep on a bench and he is the soldier that was shot in the throat. Once a hero, now a bum.
Meanwhile we learn that Paige, our waxer, and Courtney, Leonard’s assistant, are lesbian lovers. They fall out over Courtney’s issues with jealousy.
Vinnay, our Indian security guard is forced to confront his parents over the Indian tradition of arranged marriages, a concept he feels is outdated and Willie’s casino rat Father tries desperately to win back his son’s reward money after having blown it all at the track.
