Taking Chance Movie   27 December 2008
HBO has recently added the Taking Chance movie trailer to their website. The story is based on Lt Col Mike Strobl's accounts of escorting LCpl Chance Phelps home, from Dover AFB, Delaware to Dubois, WY. Chance's immediate family screened the film in mid-December: Powerful, timless, apolitical, and a wonderful tribute. The film was also selected to screen at this years Sundance Film Festival. It's scheduled to air on HBO this Feburary.

To view the trailer:
