Clips from Year at Danger (some of which didn’t make it into the finished film) are going to appear in a music video for Jesse Dayton’s song “I’m Comin’ Home” from the album “Voices of a Grateful Nation Volume 1.” Sales of the album benefit the Welcome Home Project and Soldiers’ Angels.

The video is currently in post-production and we’ll post it on here once it’s finished, but until then you can learn more about the album and the Welcome Home Project on their website.
