I loved it. I have had that knock on the door late at night.. You never quite understand what it takes for the people involved to bring back a fallen family member. It was comforting to see the honors rendered and know that was done for a family member.

Kevin Bacon likes to play crazies every few roles between his good movies. This this was one of his few good movies he has done.

SPC Carl K. Yes... Excellent Movie. But, also hard to watch, for a variety of reasons. We show it to our Freshman Cadets in JROTC at the end of the year. Very good movie, for many reasons too, for HS students.

Very touching especially if you know someone personally who has died or if you participated in the final voyage home for a fallen member.

Yes, I found it on demand by accident. I needed an entire box of Kleenex before it was over. Excellent movie.
