These Awesome Military Vehicles Are Making the Long Road Home

From the military - to a movie set - to your garage!

You may have missed Martha Raddatz' New York Times best-selling book, but hopefully you didn't miss The Long Road Home's premier on National Geographic TV.

This eight-episode mini-series (which earned 7.5/10 stars on IMDb, by the way) depicts the true events of what our soldiers and families went through on "Black Sunday," when a small platoon of soldiers from the 1st Cavalry Division was ferociously ambushed in Sadr City, Baghdad, in April 2004.

Eight Americans would make the ultimate sacrifice that day, and more than 65 would be seriously wounded.
