    I cried watching the movie, and I still cry watching Taking Chance. I was blessed my dad always came home from his flights in Vietnam. 😢

    Taking Chance is one of the absolutely most beautiful and beautifully done films I've ever seen. I know I wept from the beginning to the end -- and this movie did and still does feel like a prayer, done with such reverence.

    Thanks Sir, Taking Chance was the most Patriot Movie I was watched in years. It was not about War, but the lose of a US Marine Corps Service Member, his trip or journey home and his family. Far more importantly it was about how most in this country feel about those service members whom gave all for their country and fellow service members. Thank you, the US Marine Corps and the production crew. Chance will never be forgotten, because of this most elegant, thoughtful depiction of his life, sacrifice and final resting place. God Bless.

    I'm glad to see how things have changed since I took Brother Jose home 41yr ago! He was a Vietnam War Hero who reenlisted as a Pvt to come back to ANGLICO! The priest noted in his citation for the Silver Star when the helicopter on board which he was a passenger was struck by Enemy Fire Cpl Hernandez unhesantly exposed himself to intense Enemy Fire as he remained open to administer first aid to Several Vietnamese Marines and assisted them to reach Cover. I would like to thank the Soldiers from Fort Bliss for providing the Rifle Squad. The Major from the I&I staff stayed with me and the cemetery staff till the end. I learned years back that his wife Esperenza has joined him and they are together forever.

      Thank you for sharing Pvt. Absher's information. You've been his Angel. I can't imagine what your Mother endured. I'm sure you miss your Mother, who passed too soon it appears. I'm so sorry. I believe that after we pass we meet with those who were part of our experience on earth. I'm sure they are both in peace and in the Joy of God's presence. Blessings.

    Poem: America’s Gallant Soldiers
    By: David O. Melton
    America’s gallant soldiers
    Serve to keep America free,
    And some pay freedom’s highest cost
    And die protecting you and me
    These valiant men and women
    Whose mortal bodies now lay still,
    In death earned the greatest honor
    Herald by a lone bugler’s skill
    Because they preserve our nation
    Chosen honor guards stand abreast,
    While a lone bugle sounds out taps
    For each great soldier laid to rest
    Yet far greater than all these things
    Beyond the stones of marble white,
    Behold God’s tribute of honor
    That’s shining eternally bright
    Greater love has no one than this,
    To lay down one’s life for one’s friends,
    This honor is proclaimed by God
    Over everything it transcends
    Now honor our gallant soldiers
    Who under freedom’s banner fall,
    Soldiers who had to leave loved ones
    And made sacrifices for all
    Uplift their hurt and grieving child
    Left to long suffer and travail,
    Each soldier’s widow and orphan
    Greatly needs our help to prevail
    Let our nation and our people
    Honor all sacrifices made,
    Now honor our gallant soldiers
    And our sacred freedoms they saved
    The movie "Taking Chance" was one of my inspirations to write this poem
    David O. Melton

      A wonderful tribute to the ones who have made the ultimate sacrifice for the freedoms we hold so dear. God bless every one of them. From Bunker Hill to Gettysburg, from Normandy to Iwo Jima, from the Chosin Reservoir to Hue, and from the mountains of Afghanistan to the deserts of Iraq. May they Rest In Peace.

    After the democrats, obama, pelosi, kamala, biden etal got into office I feel America has changed drastically, terribly and horribly. I wonder how the youth today, BLM, antifa, soros, clintons, the violent protestors and those demanding reparations feel about this movie. It hurts to say this but I feel/fear our soldiers who died sacrificed themselves for the sickness seen today.
