    More than 2 explanations i have found so far. Man, Speilberg first 10 minutes or more told a story that must of had 18 year olds and then some, if normal, crapping themselves. Saving Private Ryan on somewhere in the next few days. Inlisted no less! Pride and Passion. Don't think that's a thing anymore.

    So many of our soldiers didn't have a chance after hitting the beaches & those who did make it trough saw things that haunted them for the rest of their lives.

    The fact that one human being could be so cruel to another is mind blowing.

    My Father lost a Leg at the D-Day invasion of Omaha Beach June 6 and he was one of the Lucky ones. When Spielsberg film "Saving Private Ryan" came out he saw an interview on TV and he decided to go see it alone at the Movie Plex. He sat in the theatre alone and for the first 10 minutes he wept.

    The 1 thing that sticks out in my mind is the barbed wire our soldiers had to fight through to get past the Beach while trying to dodge projectiles

    god bless those men.

    My grandfather was the 2nd wave and survived. he wouldn't have if he was in initial storm
