Burns has also agreed to hire a Latino producer to help create the additional content, PBS said Wednesday. The 14-hour doc, "The War," is scheduled to premiere in September.
Burns' film, which is already completed, will remain intact. Instead, he will seek out Latino veterans to interview about their experiences to run either during breaks or at the end of each hour. Stories about American Indians also will be included.
"We're not changing the film," Burns said. "Think of it as an amendment to the Constitution."
