Michael R. Strobl is a retired United States Marine Corps officer from Stafford, Virginia.
Michael joined the service when he was 17 years old as told in the movie "Taking Chance".
After serving in Operation Desert Storm in 1991, Strobl was assigned a desk job at Marine Corps Base Quantico in Quantico, Virginia during Operation Iraqi Freedom. Feeling guilty that Marines he served with in the Gulf War were serving in Operation Iraqi Freedom while he wasn't, Strobl volunteered to escort the remains of a fallen Marine to his home in the United States.
