204 service members from our region have been killed in Iraq and Afghanistan. Now, a new documentary honors and remembers them, through the families of eight of the fallen. We’ll talk to the film’s producer and some of the families involved - conversations that bring these faraway wars much closer to home.

Guests

  • Iris Adler, executive editor for New England Cable News and writer/producer of the new documentary “Remember Us”
  • Nicole Dicenzo, resident of Plymouth and wife of Army Captain Doug Dicenzo, who was killed in battle in Iraq; the Dicenzos are featured in “Remember Us”

We'll also hear from

  • Cathy Crane, Doug Dicenzo's mother, who is also featured in "Remember Us"
  • Brian Hart, father of Private John Hart of Bedford, Massachusetts, who was killed in battle in Iraq. The Harts are featured in “Remember Us”
