Hurt Locker: Breakdown Scene

I think that this segment from Bigelow's, Hurt Locker, is a great way to show modern day troops in a much more realistic form. It explores what I am sure are many soldiers' prime concerns over war and represents them as 'real' people, not just stylised, patriotic killing machines. I think that it makes the audience think subliminally about the topic which could be argued is on the lips of many people, why are they there and are they helping?
