Operation Homecoming

Studio 360

People have been telling tales of war since before Homer wrote the Iliad. But rarely has war been documented first-hand by the people fighting. A new program launched by the National Endowment for the Arts is aimed at changing that. In the coming year, a series of writing workshops will be held at military bases across the country. Leda Hartman visits one workshop at Camp Lejeune, the Marine base in North Carolina.
