Tyler Grey was the epitome of the warrior archetype: a Delta Force operator, a master of counterterrorism. He hunted the worst bullies on the world’s playground—high-value targets, bomb makers, warlords—executing covert missions that never made the news. He had perfected the persona—ruthless, efficient, untouchable—until one mission in Sadr City, Iraq changed everything. Stripped of everything that defined him, Tyler reached for chaos: sex, substances, a romance that was either a love worth fighting for or his ultimate kryptonite. But beneath it all, the hunger for chaos never died.

Story
Take a journey through the eyes of a Marine scout sniper as he unveils the horrors of the mean streets of Ramadi, Iraq, in 2005 from losing fellow Marines, escaping death's grasps as you silently move through the streets, and dodging improvised explosive devices, enemy snipers, and the chaos associated with a country's first election. Continue the journey through Fallujah, Iraq, in 2007, where the fighting turns more inward, and the struggles faced when balancing the losses in war and at home.

Story
Joshua Shores was just nineteen years old when he deployed to Iraq in 2005. A Midwestern kid raised in a close-knit, supportive family, he had developed a strong sense of duty and honor. Both sides of his family had proudly served their country, fostering a legacy of service that would guide his own path. Serving in Alpha Company, 1st Battalion, 5th Marine Regiment, Shores was a teenager among battle-hardened peers, far removed from the naïve assumptions of war that he had once held.

Story
Like many post-9/11 combat veterans, JT Blatty struggled to regain her sense of purpose in the first years returning home from Afghanistan and Iraq. In 2018, a chance encounter brought her to Ukraine, drawn in by the familiarity of war and those who serve in wars. Over five years, JT captured the oral history and portraits of a tribe of revolutionaries, the Donbas volunteer soldiers. As she embedded with them on the front line in bunkers and forests, and in Kyiv flats, JT's story began to blend with theirs in a universal bond of combat veterans, compelling her to stay as a new war began.

La guerra del 1914-1918 fu il primo conflitto che coinvolse tutti i paesi d'Europa. Due possenti coalizioni, l'Intesa (Gran Bretagna, Francia e Russia) e gli imperi centrali (Germania e Austria-Ungheria), si misurarono in uno scontro tanto violento quanto logorante. In termini di costi economici e umani - nove milioni di morti - i quattro anni di combattimenti ebbero sulle potenze belligeranti un effetto disastroso.

The year was 1968. I had already been in Vietnam for five months. I was 20 years old. In August 1967 I was drafted out of my Anaheim, CA. home, and was no more aware of a Vietnam than I was aware of any "domino theory that was forcing the U.S. to escalate it's draft mandate. It was the time of The Tet Offensive, Apollo 8 orbiting the moon, and the assassinations of Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert Kennedy; and about all my 19-year-old self could think about was getting gas money for my 1957 Chevy, and what girl I could take-out and impress with it.
