    Bill Moyers interviews former talk show host Phil Donahue and Ellen Spiro on the true cost of war and their documentary, "Body of War," depicting the moving story of one veteran dealing with the aftermath of war. With extensive excerpts from the film, the filmmakers talk about Iraq war veteran Tomas Young, who was shot and paralyzed less than a week into his tour of duty. Three years in the making, "Body of War" tells the poignant tale of the young man's journey from joining the service after 9/11, to fighting in Afghanistan, to living with devastating wounds after being deployed to Iraq instead.
