If you get a chance, watch ‘Taking Chance’ on HBO, or order the DVD.
Kevin Bacon plays a Marine LTC escorting a young Marine to his final resting place.
Fantastic movie, and real to boot.

Thank you for posting this thread today. I needed to see it even though I have to cry about it all over again. May God bless Christian Golczynski and all the family members of our fallen defenders. May Our Lord protect and provide for them in a way their loved one would have if they hadn’t sacrificed themselves for all of us. And may we all do everything we can to preserve this nation and the ideal that these family members continue to pay an enormous price for everyday in their tremendous loss.

I’m ambivalent...it’s a story that needs to be told like folks jumping from the twin towers

Thank you for the ping, STARWISE. I have seen that photo before and it is always heartbreaking. Thank you for posting it and the real life story behind it.
To: STARWISE
So many possible comments ...
YMMV, but I can see that boy (in a few years' time) standing on yellow painted footprints ...

The widow, and the Marine behind her, are keeping vigil with the body of her fallen husband. The lap top is a device for receiving condolences.
