The medics on Omaha Beach were just incredible. They went to work doing the best they could under the circumstances, triage in the midst of chaos and carnage. Enemy fire killed and wounded medical personnel. My dad was an Army NCO in hospital administration and was involved in getting wounded men from France back to hospitals in England.

The Norman character in the FURY movie had a full body freeze up, when he saw the young people hung by the SS, that put the hook into him. The Upham character in this movie had a full body freeze up, when he saw the Captain shot by the prisoner that was released, that put the hook into him. With those type of guys it has to be personal to make them pull a trigger.

When Wade saw he was hit in the liver, he knew he would bleed out in minutes. He also knew the morphine would kill him 😢😢😢

This masterpiece speaks for itself beyond belief. With Vets walking out of theaters because of the reality. You are now obligated to see Band of Brothers to those who haven't already. Spielberg and Hanks were just beginning with this brilliance. They trolled us so well from the beginning thinking Ryan was actually Captain Miller with the eyes. As horrific and spectacular this film is in every way, the hardest part for me to see is still the knife fight. When he's trying to reason with him as a person. It illustrated the pointlessness and need of War in one breath. FUBAR My Father's name was James Frederick. That part gets me every time.

I love how you basically said Sgt Horvath's line later in the movie at 25:20 XD

[@adamscott7354]

I think over 50% of people would find the resolve to go and help at that key moment, Upham is not such a person, he’s too scared, he doesn’t belong there and realistically the other squad members would have long since lost patience and done something about it, whatever it would be, something But bear in mind it’s often said that Upham’s lack of resolve as a character is meant to symbolize America’s initial hesitancy to enter the war and fully commit to the fight, that it cost time and thusly lives.

Did you catch his wife asked him, "Captain Miller, did you know him?" He never told her THAT story.

To answer your question: When Upham had the German soldiers at gunpoint, the one soldier said “I know this man…..I know this soldier…….Upham!”

Thank you for your service bro

Hey brother, I assume this is a re-upload since it's Dec 26th now. In any case love your reactions, all the best from a fellow vet.

[@scottdarden3091]

I would frag Upham back at base camp, but then again nobody alive knew what he did.

[@oldgeezer3324]

Exellent review

2000 Americans died on that beach.

I'm a veteran and wondering why we are talking about Memorial Day on December 26. I mean we should remember every day, but this is not Memorial Day 😊 Maybe we will bump into each other at Debakey someday 😊

@scottdarden3091 this is a reuploaded video from memorial day brother 🫡🇺🇸

[@iKvetch558]

Since this is a reupload, I will repost roughly the same comment I made on the original upload... Saving Private Ryan is not very accurate to history, but is incredibly realistic in most every way, with a very few exceptions...such as bullets not being able to kill you that far underwater, and flamethrowers not really exploding that way in 1944. One thing to know, pay no mind at all to that man who took off his helmet on the beach at 6:10 and then got shot in the head...that next shot would have killed him even if he had kept his helmet on. The helmets of WW2 would almost never stop a bullet, except under very very rare circumstances. The movie is not a true story, and it differs from the actual history of D-Day in many ways...but the basic plot is loosely based on the 4 Niland Brothers, one of whom served with the 101st Airborne Division. However, when 3 Nilands were reported dead, no mission was sent behind enemy lines to get the last brother, and it turned out that one brother that had been thought dead had actually only been captured. The 4th brother was found and notified by an Army Chaplain, and was sent home, but as far as the brothers none of what happened in this movie happened in real life. There really was a Company C of the 2nd Rangers that landed on Omaha Beach, but they were commanded by Captain Ralph Goranson, and they did not land quite where it was shown in the film. Probably the most important historical thing that Spielberg got wrong is that he had the boats that carried the Rangers to the beach being driven by Americans...they were not. On D-Day, the boats that carried the US Rangers to the beach were driven by UK sailors of the Royal Navy. There are many other things in the film that are not accurate to the real history of D-Day, but that one really fails to honor some of the men that fought and died at Omaha Beach, so it is definitely the one most worth noting.

[@edb6690]

Hmmmm, such an expert, you were there? I knew sevral vets who were there and saw this all say it was the most realistic representation of what happened. You have only read about what someone wrote from other written stories. There are so many mistakes written, some because they wanted a certain view that readers would get, some because whoever told the stories just lied. There were a lot of coverups to save some generals ass.

[@iKvetch558]

You can look it up yourself...the movie is realistic, not historically accurate. Even in the Omaha Beach scene the beach is wrong, the obstacles are wrong, the Vierville draw is wrong, the bunkers are wrong, the boats are wrong as well as the people operating them...and on and on. There are many videos on YT detailing all the stuff Spielberg got wrong, and I only mention a very few things. There is a difference between realism and accuracy.
