Description: After 17 years of conflict in Afghanistan and Iraq, more than 2.7 million Americans have been deployed there -- 7,000 of those have died. In his new book, "The Fighters," Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times correspondent C.J. Chivers portrays the two wars through the experiences of six individuals stationed in the region. Chivers joins Forum to discuss what the moment-by-moment experiences of those in combat reveal about the legacy and ongoing consequences of U.S. military involvement in the Middle East.
