19 Marines and their instructors from the Wounded Marine Careers Foundation in San Diego http://www.woundedmarinecareers.org/ will bus up to lafcpug to show clips of their work and talk about what they've learned in the 10 week film and media production school which trains wounded Marines for a career in media, filmmaking, sound design, editing, graphics and photojournalism. This is the inaugural class. You can read about this school and the Marines, in this recent NY Times article.
