A new National Geographic documentary is asking a crucial question: was the war in Afghanistan worth the sacrifice of so many American soldiers.
'Retrograde,' a National Geographic documentary directed by Matthew Heineman, examines the war in Afghanistan and the sacrifice of American soldiers. Sandy Kenyon has more on the documentary.
"I feel like it's my job to put you in those places, put you in those helicopters, on the ground in the airport, and make you think about, 'what if that was me, or my sister, or my cousin, or my brother,'" director Matthew Heineman said. As scary a ride as this was, the time of the final exodus of the Americans from Kabul was even more challenging.
