Storyline
| Plot Summary |
In 2003, 30 years after they served together in the Vietnam War, former Navy Hospital Corpsman Larry "Doc" Shepherd re-unites with Marines Sal and Mueller on a different type of mission: to bury Doc's son, a young Marine killed in the Iraq War. Doc decides to forgo burial at Arlington Cemetery and, with the help of his old buddies, takes the casket on a bittersweet trip up the East Coast to his home in suburban New Hampshire.

Did You Know?
| Trivia | Steve Carell consulted with his father, a WWII veteran, to prepare for his role. See more » |
| Goofs | Incorrectly Regarded as Goof: Age of Steve Carell doesn't match up for Vietnam service. However, the movie takes place in the past. If you presume Steve Carrel is 55 (as he was at the time the film was shot) during the movie's setting of 2003, he would have turned 19 (when he was there as per the "Disneyland" story) in 1967, the height of the US involvement in the war.
