Default all PGR members; need to see this

im a little late on seeing this movie,but saw a post in this area about "taking Chance" so I rented it and watched it last night. this movie is ausome. all PGR members should see it before going on a mission....if it dont do something to your heart u ain't very patriotic. Ironically the marine's last name is the same as those "UG's" that hate us Americans so much.

to our heroes,
Semper fi

Very good movie...saw it several years ago when it came out w/ my wife and daughter. Too bad that it was not promoted heavily across the nation.

Excellent movie indeed. That is one to buy and have on my shelf versus renting it.

I have the movie saved on DVR. To watch that movie will put a HUGE lump into your throat. If it doesn't, then there is something wrong with you.

PGR mission coming up for a solider KIA in Iraq.

It was a great movie to get Americans grounded in what happens to honor our fallen heroes. If only it could have a larger exposure to 300 million citizens. The closing segments of those honorings is occurring from a few to dozens of times a day.

Here, starting 25 August at 1259 hours, Lt. Paul Magers arrives at the airport to full honors (plus PGR allowed to set up on the tarmac this time) 39 years after his helicopter was shot down in Vietnam. He and CW2 Donald Wann of Tulsa laid down the fire that allowed all members of a Ranger unit to be rescued. Then when their own suppressing fire chopper was able to pull out they were hit and exploded on ground impact. Finally found recently. Also a vigil tomorrow evening, then services on Friday and interment in the new Yellowstone County Veterans Cemetery. Likely 200 on bikes and an ocean of flag lines. Rest In Peace our heroes.
