25 Days in Iraq has been featured on: CNN, The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, Forbes, The Washington Post, Fox, National Public Radio and more.
The DVD "25 Days in Iraq: A Comedian's Journey Through The War" is a blistering account of comedian Tom Irwin's travels through 60 war torn cities of Iraq and Afghanistan. Irwin recently completed his fourth tour with Comics on Duty for the Armed Forces Entertainment. While on tour, Irwin performed over 200 comedy shows for American soldiers, despite being mortared while on stage and having the tent he was performing in completely blow away during a sand storm. Tales of heartbreak, humor and suffering are threaded throughout this intimate and unique view of a war where the end seems to be nowhere in sight.
This full length DVD is now available with an extras section that includes one of Tom's stand up comedy performances filmed at Saddam Hussein's palace.
Tom Irwin is an honorably discharged Army veteran, of Charlie Company 5th Engineers out of Ft. Leonard Wood, Missouri.
