Protests are happening across the

Speaking at the Pentagon -- President


Bush made strong claims of success on


the ground.



(SOT: PRESIDENT BUSH) - "IRAQ HAS


BECOME THE PLACE WHERE ARABS JOINED
WITH


AMERICANS TO DRIVE AL QAIDA OUT."



The commander-in-chief acknowledged
that a little over a year ago, the war


effort was faltering, but says that
changed once the troop surge strategy


began.



(SOT: PRESIDENT BUSH) - "THE SURGE HAS


DONE MORE THAN TURN THE SITUATION IN


IRAQ AROUND - IT HAS OPENED THE DOOR TO
A MAJOR STRATEGIC VICTORY IN THE


BROADER WAR ON TERROR."



(STANDUP BRIDGE: Susan Roberts / CBS

President Bush called the recent
successes in Iraq -- 'undeniable' --
and


warned about withdrawing American
forces too soon.. critics are still


pushing back hard, demanding an end to
the war."



Both Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton
are meeting with veterans today. And,


they are renewing their pledges for a
plan to bring the war to a close if
one


of them is elected president.

vo: Corporal Sean Huze joined the
Marines the day after 9/11. He and
other Iraqi vets...some of whom are
still in the military...were cast
because of the expertise and
authenticity they provide.



(Damon set-up)

intimidating.



(SOT Matt Damon ) (:28-:32)


"This is the most over-loaded film I've
ever been in with people who are the
real thing."



(Chaotic scene in square)



vo: Sometimes it is almost too
authentic. Soldiers playing roles they
actually lived through may make for
great cinema...but it comes at a price
that cannot be measured in box office
returns.



(SOT Specialist ED Gluck/Soldier-Actor)


(:45-:49)


"The experience is fun but when you're
here it's not fun. No. Not at all."



(Video ex-Iraq)



vo: The film is based on soldiers who
went into Iraq in 2003 to look for
weapons of mass destruction. The
soldier-actors insist the film is not
anti-war.



(Voice of Cpl Brian
Siefkes/Solder-Actor) (1:00-1:05)


"It may look bad but it's an accurate
representation of what we did over
there."



(Allen Pizzey Bridge/Kenitra, Morocco)


(1:06-1:16)



The level of realism here is so high
that it actually blurs the line between
information and entertainment...which
is one reason why the soldiers who are
helping to make it that way agreed to
be in the movie.



(SOT Sgt Adam Wendling, Army National


Guard, Iowa City ) (1:17-1:22)


"I think it'll give people a good
opportunity to, to see you know what
kind of chaos actually goes on."



vo: But it is after all...only a
movie...so is it fair to presume that
play acting...even by real
soldiers...and all the technology of
Hollywood really give the public an
honest view of the war?



(SOT Huze -- over pix) (1:35-1:46)


"I think it's a movie about the truth
and I don't think there's anything more
patriotic than finding the truth about
why nearly 4,000 U.S. troops have been
killed."



How successful that is will be decided
at the box office.

GRAPHIC=UVA The Virginia Cavaliers finished


tied-for-First in the A-C-C last season
and went to the N-C-A-A Tournament.


The Wahoo's no doubt expected to
be back in the field of 65 this season.


Unfortunately U-V-A didn't end up
in the Big Dance, they instead got
passed over by the N-I-T and had to
settle with playing in the first ever
College Basketball Invitational taking
on the University of Richmond as part
of the 16 team Tournament.

FSN The Cavaliers trailed by 2 at
halftime and saw that defict grow to
double digits as the Spiders were
bombing from Deep with their big Man
Dan Geriot, he scored 22 on the Night.


But the Cavaliers closed the game
on a 15 to 3 Run, that included Adrian
Joseph's 3-pointer, his only basket
from the field, that Got U-V-A within 1
at 64 to 63.


Then Sean Singletary *CG final Richmond would drive to the basket and get the 64 bucket to go, that gave U-V-A the lead Virginia and they would hang on for the 66 to 64

66 win over Richmond.


They will play Old Dominion in
the next round of the C-B-I.
