      I found out from the post description before I watched the video. The message just doesn’t hit for me.

      In a past life (7 years ago) I made PSAs professionally and if I submitted something like this my boss would have vetoed it for the reasons I gave - vague message, no call to action

        Sounds like your boss had poor taste. Or maybe a generally low opinion of the intelligence of the audience.

          Lol. Sounds like you don’t know me or my boss. You must be a professional videographer for non-profits…so what’s the purpose of this PSA? To let us know it sucks to be in the military?

          A good PSA not only makes you aware of something but also what you can do to help
