Journalist Sebastian Junger Reflects On Colleague's Death, His Own Close Call
ResumeJournalist Sebastian Junger was supposed to be in Libya, covering the conflict there with photojournalist Tim Hetherington last month. A personal matter kept him home, and Hetherington and another photographer, Chris Hondros, were killed in a battle in Misrata.
Junger joins us to reflect on his friend's death and the work they did together, which resulted in his book, "War," and their Oscar-nominated documentary "Restrepo."
The film focuses on a platoon of U.S. soldiers at a remote outpost in Afghanistan.
