Alive Day Memories: Home from Iraq (2007) [James Gandolfini]

Three-time Emmy winner James Gandolfini returns to HBO with the documentary special 'Alive Day Memories: Home from Iraq". The documentary about wounded soldiers surveys the physical and emotional cost of watt through memories if their 'alive day', the day they narrowly escaped death in Iraq.

Sopranos star James Gandolfini pulls double duty as executive producer and host of a documentary concerning wounded U.S. veterans of the Iraq War. Originally aired on HBO, Alive Day Memories: Home from Iraq finds ten American GIs detailing their narrow brushes with death on the desert battlefield. The title of the program is derived from a phrase used by the soldiers to indicate the day that they cheated death during combat -- often with horrific, life-altering wounds that left them permanently disabled. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
