It was kind of them leaving me overwhelmed to have given me this love and to the team. Wherever we have travelled with the film, especially meeting the men who serve our country have showered us with a great deal of appreciation and love. They have been unanimously happy with the essay of those in armed forces and the incredible role they play in our society."
