Bedford - The Town They Left Behind

Poignant and fascinating, this documentary delves into the history of a National Guard unit located in Bedford, Va., the town that bears the sad distinction of having lost more men per capita than other towns during World War II. In 1941, the "weekend warriors" became full-fledged soldiers and eventually stormed the beaches on D-Day. Decades later, the same unit was called upon to fight in Afghanistan, and its proud tradition of service continued.
