Vietnam: My Film Diary Pitch:
To view this sample reel, visit http://www.fixedwingfilms.com/privatereel.html
During the Vietnam War soldiers often carried 8mm film cameras with them to record their experiences. Bob Whitworth was such a soldier and has much 8mm footage of his experiences from training to deployment on to combat. This project would show some of these experiences inter cut with an interview with Bob. Watch a “video blog” before there were video blogs from our soldiers in Iraq, this time from Iraq’s bloody predecessor - Vietnam.
