Black Watch by Gregory Burke
Posted: August 13, 2016 Filed under: Books, Theater / Drama | Tags: Books, English, Gregory Burke, Theater Leave a commentA short play about Scotland's royal infantry coming to Iraq in 2004 to support Uncle Sam's pet invasion of the House of Saddam.
A modern play, it would probably be perfect and quite entertaining if I attended a theater performance – off a kindle page, however, words, stories, scoffs and swearing from the retired Black Watch vets touched me a lot less.
Nonetheless, it has a good balance between “support our boys” and “what in the world are we fighting for”.
