		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve always been on the lookout for films with strong messages dealing with honor and character in this series for teen-age boys, and the stories can be fictional, factual or a bit of both. It&#8217;s a bonus, however, when we have a chance to see something of a historical nature that can also help us [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Tonight was &#8220;Fundamentals in Film&#8221; Night with the teen-age boys and a couple of the dads. We watched a movie, as usual, but first I had to interject some real life &#8212; much to the lads&#8217; chagrin. I haven&#8217;t blogged about our movie nights for awhile but we&#8217;ve been getting together regularly for two years [...]]]></description>

There were 10 episodes, plus the documentary &#8220;We Stand Alone Together&#8221;, in the mostly true-to-life story of E company, paratroopers of the 101st Airborne in World War II.

We knew that wasn&#8217;t a good thing, but it also seemed like kind of a silly insult.
