New Hampshire Newsmakers of the Year 2006: The War Tapes
2006 saw several members of the New Hampshire National Guard turned into media darlings. Staff Sergeant Zach Bazzi and Specialist Michael Moriarty of New Hampshire, as well as Sergeant Steven Pink of Massachusetts, were deployed to Iraq in 2004, and for a year, on top of their guns and tanks, they armed themselves with cameras, capturing their experiences at war.
Upon their return, Granite State film director Deborah Stanton took their footage and made it into a compelling documentary called "The War Tapes," which won a prestigious award at the Tribeca Film Festival. Overnight, Zach, Mike and Steven went from war veterans to movie stars, becoming the faces and voices of a conflict half a world away.
