** a little more info below from Roger.......
Friends and Family,
Mine and my company's (Dog Company 1-506th Infantry) Afghanistan experiences should be airing tonight, 2/28/2010, on Anderson Cooper 360 at 10 and 11 pm eastern standard time
Here is the background and the details on what I can tell you:
This past fall, I was approached by CNN about doing a piece on my experiences in Afghanistan. The producer we’ve worked with these past several months believes that the story will air either tonight on Campbell Brown (8-9PM EST) or Anderson Cooper 360 (10PM-12AM EST) or on American Morning tomorrow morning (6-9AM EST). Each of those shows and their respective time slots are listed below as Eastern Standard or Pacific. We expect a fairly in depth look at the circumstances surrounding my case, totaling around 30-35 minutes of total story line, interview, commentary, etc. and all focusing on the need for more effective ROE and detention policies to better match up to the asymmetric enemies we face today, especially in NATO led Afghanistan.
Lauren and I are very excited to share this with all of you, as this story serves as a culminating point and a vivid reminder of all the prayers, encouragement, support and activism all of you provided on our behalf. We cannot thank you enough and will never forget all that you have done.
We love you!
Thank you!
Take care.
Love, Roger and Lauren Hill
P.S. The website my family put together, www.morethanbrothers.com has been updated and a petition link established. We plan to make a formal appeal to the Army over my discharge status and fight for an Honorable discharge after the show has aired. Anyone is welcome to sign the petition. |
