No words can express how deeply moved I was by this portrayal of human compassion. I highly recommend this film. Possibly Mr. Bacon's greatest work. Be prepared to shed lots of tears, as the emotion portrayed is unlike any other film.

Moving. I believe this is one Kevin Bacon best acting movie. This movie shows that the Marine Corps honored their fallen brothers by taking them back home to their love ones.

I've seen this movie several times and I am always deeply moved....and yes cry through most if it. The love and care taken by the Marines in caring for their fallen comrades is very touching. Great movie and I highly recommend it.
