The film opens on a black screen, with white letters describing the date and place, as we hear Taking Chances chatter about a "suspicious vehicle" followed by the sound of an explosion and gunfire. We then cut to see two Marines driving, wearing dress blue uniforms, to an unmarked house in the middle of the night and knocking on the door.

The colonel makes his way home with his family for a short while, then the camera cuts to Taking Chances Marines in woodland MarPat camouflage taking US Flag-draped coffins off of an airplane in the rain. After a short clip of the colonel eating dinner with his family, we find him Taking Chances at the casualty report yet again but this time he writes down some information.

Taking Chances then arrives at Dover Taking Chances Mortuary where he gets his instructions along with other Marines on how to go about escorting a fallen Marine. After the instruction, all the service member escorts who are awaiting their turn to depart head outside and render honors as each of them departs. The colonel is informed that Phelps is not ready to be transported due to the number of casualties. Taking Chances checks into a hotel room and the next day does an inventory, with another Marine, of Phelps' personal items including: a cross on a string, a Saint Christopher necklace, a wristwatch, and Phelps' dog tags. He is told that Phelps's private effects are not to leave his side, under any circumstances. The colonel then verifies that the body in the Taking Chances is in fact the private and then begins his drive to the airport where he has a talk with Rich Brewer played by John Magaro of the Dover Port Mortuary. They talk about the military and how the driver knew two men from his high school who enlisted, one of whom returned after sustaining severe injuries who is recovering at Walter Reedand the other who was killed. Strobl arrives at the airport, where he Taking Chances renders honors Taking Chances the private as he is offloaded to a cargo area, before saying a curbside goodbye to the driver telling him, he's "a good man". Strobl heads to the check-in counter, where the ticketing agent tells him that he has been upgraded to First Class.

The sergeant tells Strobl that he is escorting his deceased brother home. The following morning, the private's casket is loaded onto a Northwest Airlines flight as the baggage handlers and even the flight captain pay their respects. On this flight, Strobl sits next to a young woman who cheerily offers him a magazine to read, and also texts someone that she is sitting next to a "HOT soldier," which Strobl happens to catch a glimpse of and corrects her that he is actually a Marine. Upon landing, the airliner captain, a retired U. Air Force officer and former A attack jet pilot in the first Persian Gulf War, Taking Chances a special announcement, asking for the other passengers to remain seated so that Strobl has a chance to deplane first and render honors for Phelps Taking Chances his casket is unloaded. The woman sitting next to the Lt. Col, who had no idea he was on an escort mission for a fallen Marine, is visibly touched, and apologizes for potentially being insensitive with her earlier actions; Strobl instead warmly thanks her for her company. After unloading, Strobl is greeted by the funeral director, and they load Phelp's casket for the final part of his journey. Along the way, an impromptu funeral procession forms along the highway, as people in passing cars see Strobl and realize what the hearse is carrying. After arriving in the town where Phelps's parents reside, the colonel is greeted by a younger fellow Marine, who along with a partner had driven up from Salt Lake City a Taking Chances days earlier to inform Phelps's family of his death. Taking Chances men proceed into the funeral home, where the younger Marine suggests that this would be a good time to place some personal items that Taking Chances family had asked him to place into the casket; Strobl agrees, and despite it being a closed casket ceremony, insists that he wants to make sure Phelps's uniform is correct and in place. As the men open the casket, both Marines have a strong, emotional reaction to seeing Phelps; Strobl remarks that even though the staff at Dover Port Mortuary knew it was going to be a closed casket ceremony, they still made every effort to make sure that Phelps was prepared and dressed perfectly. Later that evening, a memorial event is held at the local VFW, to which Strobl was invited earlier. The local veterans, along with Phelps's Taking Chances who was with him when he was killed and others, all welcome Strobl with sincere gratitude for "bringing Chance home. As the attendees of the memorial leave at the end of the evening, Strobl remarks to the U. Marine 1st. Division Korean War veteran who first introduced himself at the bar, that he was eligible for Taking Chances tour of duty in himself, but instead "got used to the sight Taking Chances his wife and kids" and Taking Chances in an application for an office tour instead, which was granted. Even though Lt. Col Strobl is a recipient of the Taking Chances Combat Action Ribbon from his service in the First Gulf War, he feels somewhat ashamed of his actions, to which the Korean War veteran reminds him that there is no shame in loving his family, and that he is not any less of a Marine than Phelps Taking Chances his sergeant or any of the other men serving in combat in Iraq, because now, he is a witness for Phelps, having served this escort mission, and he is now responsible in no small part for Phelps's legacy. Prior to the funeral the next day, Taking Chances. Strobl meets PFC Phelps's family for the first time, and makes a point of mentioning that Phelps was treated with great care and dignity across Taking Chances entire journey. He hands over Phelps's personal effects, as well as a letter from Phelps's leader. He finally leaves them with the cross that was given to him by a flight attendant, saying that eventually he realized it was not really given to him, only that he was carrying it for them. With the father's voiceover reading the platoon Taking Chances letter in the background, we see Phelps receive a funeral with full military honors, and his divorced parents are each presented with a flag, "on behalf of the President, the Taking Chances of Taking Chances Marine Corps, and a grateful nation," honoring their son. As the attendees all pay their respects, Strobl renders one final salute as the last one left at the ceremony. The film ends as Strobl reminisces about his experience, saying that despite the fact he did not know Chance Phelps prior to his death, somehow after escorting him home and laying him to rest, he now misses him. We then see Strobl returning home and embracing his wife and children, as the final shot of the film reveals that the mailbox of the unknown house depicted at the beginning of the film says "Phelps.
