NOVA (1974)

S31E14 Life and Death in the War Zone

As other journalists focused on military operations in Iraq, NOVA shifted its attention to the frontline medical teams, spending every hour alongside the dedicated doctors, nurses, and medics at a Combat Support Hospital (CSH). The program highlights the intense weeks of April and May 2003, a time when CSH personnel were inundated with casualties—both Iraqi soldiers and civilians—struggling amidst the chaos of a disintegrated healthcare system in their country.
