I just watched what I thought was a great movie. Did a search in the thread but didn't see it come up. It was called "Memorial Day" and it's on Netflix. I never saw it advertised but I'm glad I found it.

Basically it's about a guy serving in Iraq who recalls his early teen years and what he learned from his WWII-vet grandfather after finding grandpa's old army footlocker in the barn. The boy finds all sorts of mementos in the foot locker and an emotional grandpa explains how he got them. Pretty touching. Worth a watch.
