Battle for Hearts and Minds: A documentary on the war in Afghanistan by Danfung Dennis
Photojournalist Danfung Dennis was embedded with Echo Company, 2nd Battalion, 8th Marine Company of the 2nd Marine Expeditionary Brigade when they went into the Helmand River Valley of southern Afghanistan in early July of 2009. Equipped with a Canon 5D MKii, he shot this amazing video of the soldiers after they were dropped 11 miles behind enemy lines to seize a key bridge. Shortly after landing a battle broke out which lasted for three days.
