"Could be Christmas" low key hits hard
Sad thing is he's probably speaking from experience
I’ve had to do exactly that. Had to make the notification to a family whose seven-year old got killed riding in front of a car on the bicycle they’d given him earlier that morning as one of his Christmas presents. Just one of those Christmas memories that cops get stuck dealing with. And no, that wasn’t my worst.
The hardest job an officer can do is knock on a soldiers family door and tell them they won't be coming back
And the other is land navigation
“I know this can’t be easy for you”
🇯🇵I'm Japanese. I rented this movie when it was new and available for rental a few years ago. I learned that there are some strict basics for messengers, and what I remember is that 1) you must tell the family within 24 hours of the death in battle, and 2) you must never touch the family. Recently, with the spread of many video services, Blu-rays, hard disks, and digital televisions, rental video stores have closed down one after another, but there is still one large store left in my neighborhood, so I would like to go and rent it soon. It is not available on the American video service I subscribe to.
She handled that completely maturely. Despite the circumstances, she was still able to offer her appreciation and acceptance of them. In this story, She is a hero too.
She was cheating on her husband what are you on about
Maybe he was an asshole
@@eddiemoran8044
your proof
@@UnfilteredAmericaor, maybe, she was a logical yt person, and doesn’t solely react based upon emotion. Lmao
Out of the war films, this one is honestly the most heartbreaking
Watch Taking Chance with Kevin Bacon.
Wow. I've seen Woody Harlson play the Fleet Admiral of the US Navy and I've seen him play a father and a hero and kick ass zombie killing jerk wad. But this really hits home. The man has range.
You forget No country for old men as a Bounty Hunter/bush thumper
Did his beret shrink in the wash? 😂
Those berets…yikes
the day we were authorized patrol caps was a blessed day indeed
The biggest problem with berets all around the world is that they can very easily look ridiculous if you´re not constantly keeping them in place.

what movie is this
I think it is “The Messenger”
The dead know one thing. Its is better to be alive.
My pop had this job a few times when the vietnam war raged.
Must be depressing, hope he's happy
@@panther7584 he did his duty
At times he would talk to my mom about it. about a time he had to tell a black mother and his poor family that her young son was killed in Viet nam. I saw the sadness in his face.
Worst job ever
Is it just me ore is wearing medals to this occasion kind fuckt up?
Not at all, but I can see where you are coming from. They are not required to wear them, but if they didn't, their superiors (who awarded them some of them) could be upset. For most soldiers it makes sense just to wear what you have.
nope. dress uniform.
Was the man who died black?
Most likely the guy she was cheating with
Who cares?!
Well her child is mixed, so it would answer questions about the film. Why dont you gtfo out of your feelings.@UnfilteredAmerica
and still the minions go on and on to sacrifice their loved ones for the elites ...
Really good film. Gut wrenching.
