manbearpigeon, your information is somewhat incorrect. He was born in Riverton, Wyoming, and moved to Clifton, Colorado. During his service, his parents resided in Dubois, Wyoming, where the burial was conducted.

Your information is incorrect. Chance Phelps was escorted and buried in Dubois, Wyoming where he was born.

this clip came from a pbs series called "crossroads" which unfortunately chose not to air a documentary about moderate muslems. the reasoning was that showing that would aknowlege that muslems like abu izzadeen and osama bin laden are extreme.
