The United States aircraft carrier Bonhomme Richard docked in Brisbane this week. Around 3000 American personnel, marines and sailors
were welcomed to Queensland.

Another former US Marine is also in town who didn't arrive on the aircraft carrier, but who came by more conventional means. Vince Emanueleis
a veteran of the war in Iraq, someone who has suffered from post traumatic stress disorder and who is now an anti-war activist.

Vince is in Australia to promote a film called On The Bridge and found some time in his busy schedule to pop into the ABC studio to talk
to Warren Boland.
