Studies show that the public can have skewed views of veterans based on what's seen in film or on television, said Chris Marvin, executive director of Got Your 6, the group launching the new program. "They are heroes on one end of the spectrum or broken veterans on the other end of the spectrum," he said.
Marvin, an Army veteran, cited Ed O'Neill's role as Jay Pritchett on "Modern Family" and Bradley Cooper's depiction of Navy SEAL Chris Kyle in "American Sniper" as accurate portrayals.
at least they acknowledge that Chris "420 kill savages" Kyle is an accurate portrayal, oh wait nvm the movie whitewashes his self-acknowledged racism and blood lust
