The series followed a unit of the United States Army's Third Infantry Division on its first tour of duty in Iraq, and chronicled the War's effects on the soldiers' families in the United States.

An amazing show that only got a limited run. It was able to look at the Iraq war and the soldiers fighting it without seeming to petition for or against the conflict. Indeed, this was one of the criticisms.
I saw an episode or two on Showcase, then downloaded the rest of the episodes. It is a show that deserves to be seen.
