I have
decided to lead my first watchalong in the year 2013. I have chosen the topic of war movies that have
something to say about leadership. There
are many good war movies that deal with this topic. We will do one (sometimes two) per month. I will pose a few general questions to focus
on when you view and then we will discuss at the end of the month. Everyone is welcome. Thanks to the gang at Armchair General Forums
for some excellent suggestions.
