    Did anyone else happen to see Taking Chance ??

    HBO has a new movie called "Taking Chance" starring Kevin Bacon.I think it was one of his best performances. Its the true story of a Marine Corps officer who volunteered to escort the remains of PFC Chance Phelps from Dover to his hometown in Wyoming.I saw it last night and it was very moving.If you have a relative or friend in the military you will have a greater appreciation of how dedicated our military is. Actually that statement applies to anyone who see's this film. Make it a point to check it out, you'll be better off for it.

    PS I know Jacqui is going to see this so I thought I would include this link for her. It was written by the Marine who served as the escort who served with my son at Quantico. Feel free to read this if you are so inclined.
