It is also an American drama with the theme of the Iraq War. The protagonists are also several American soldiers. The styles of "Then and That Place" and "The Killing Generation" are very different. Why? One is whitewashing, the other is smearing, and different ways naturally do not conspire with each other.
Both dramas are well-made, and they are evenly matched. From the perspective of publicity, "Killing Generation" is even better: the screenwriter claims that these are all his own personal experiences, adapted from real people, and he also invited a few buddies to help the platform. What's more, two of the prototypes are still serving in the army. After seeing it, the commander will probably vomit three liters of blood, right?
