It received a “rave,” an overwhelmingly positive review, from the ''Los Angeles Times'' calling the play ''“a heart clutching eye witness mosaic,”'' and praised its ''“shocking force and awesome honesty”''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=With Marines on Iraqi tour of Duty - Los Angeles Times )〕 Due to first-time playwright and cast member Sean Huze being an active-duty Marine on leave, he returned to his duty station at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, and the play's brief run closed in October 2004.
