Screening of ?The Invisible War?

The American Legion Post 29 in Washington is hosting a free public screening of the award-winning documentary ?The Invisible War? at the Washington Public Library on Thursday April 25, at 6:30 p.m.

A groundbreaking investigative documentary about one of our country?s most shameful and best-kept secrets, ?The Invisible War? reveals the epidemic of rape within the U.S. Military.

Tracing the powerfully emotional stories of several young veterans, the film reveals the systemic cover-up of the crimes they have suffered and follows their struggles to rebuild their lives and careers. Featuring hard-hitting interviews with high-ranking military officials and members of Congress, ?The Invisible War? urges us all ? civilian and soldier alike ? to fight for a system that no longer forces our military to choose between speaking up and serving our country.
