    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.

    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.

    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.

    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
