The event was covered by CBC. Their coverage will air this week in conjunction with a feature mini-documentary CBC produced on the story of David Leeson and Scott Kesterson and the making of AT WAR.

Here is Troy's first one-on-one interview podcast featured on bouhammer.com. This interview was conducted with freelance journalist, embedded reporter and filmmaker, Scott Kesterson. They talk almost exclusively about his film, AT WAR, but also dive into the current state of the war in Afghanistan.
