I may be a little sorry if so. I felt like everyone needs to know about and see this movie. Thanks for bearing with me. Here is a link to view the trailer.
Peace and love will get you killed. Unarmed helplessness is a welcome mat for evil. Self-defense is the most powerful, driving instinct in good people everywhere. To deny it is evil personified. Ted Nugent.
I'm proud and honored to say that I served with various Marine Divisions while in Vietnam. I was in Amphibious Assault, and spent much time with these warriors. My units website has the entire story of USMC Corporal Chance Phelps' journey home posted there if anyone cares to check it out. It was writen by the Marine that brought him home. It's a very good read.
I have not seen the movie, but if it's an accurate account of the real story, then it should be seen by all Americans to honor one of our fallen heros.

Rick, thanks for posting that link. To say that was "a good read" is a mighty big understatement. Especially in these times, it makes you feel very good about our country. Hopefully they'll put the movie on dvd someday (don't have hbo).
A government which robs Peter to pay Paul can always count on the support of Paul.
I got to watch this movie the other night. Amazed how well they did making this movie, it is very good. There is a overwhelming sense of pride you get all the way through it. Pride might not be the right word, you are absolutely moved by the story of PFC Chance Phelps. Every time I looked over to my wife she was crying, I even felt my chin quiver. I hope you all see it.

To all who have served, you have eternal gratitude and respect. Thank You, Richard aka Rpknaz
