PBS’s NOW show tonight is titled “Fighting the Army.” It should be good. From the website:

Of the thousands of U.S. troops getting discharged from the Army each year, many who are suffering from post traumatic stress disorder and brain injuries aren’t getting the vital care they need. The Army claims these soldiers have pre-existing mental illnesses or are guilty of misconduct. But advocates say this is a way for the Army to get rid of “problem” soldiers quickly, without giving them the treatment and benefits to which they’re entitled.

This week, NOW travels to Fort Hood in Texas to meet traumatized soldiers fighting a new battle, this one against the army they served. Are soldiers being wrongfully discharged for honorable service?

The season premiere of Frontline airs tonight at 9pm Eastern time. Tonights show is “Cheney’s Law.” FRONTLINE meticulously traces the behind-closed-doors battle within the administration over the power of the presidency and the rule of law.

From the press release:

Be there or be square.
