Feature trailer for the HBO film Taking Chance. Based on a true story, inspired by the writings of Lt. Col. Michael Strobl of the US Marine Corps. Chance Phelps was wearing his Saint Christopher medal when he was killed on Good Friday. Eight days later, I handed the medallion to his mother. I didn't know Chance before he died. Today, I miss him. -- LtCol Michael R. Strobl, USMC (Ret.), Taking Chance
