'High Ground' Sreening

Former College of DuPage student and veteran Steve Baskis (right) answers questions from the audience before a recent advance screening of the documentary “High Ground” at College of DuPage. The film chronicles the journey of 11 wounded Afghanistan and Iraq war veterans and one Gold Star mother who climbed Mt. Labouche in the Himalayas. Baskis, who survived an explosion that left him blind, shrapnel-scarred and with nerve damage in his left arm, was part of the team.
