My father was a Marine in Vietnam. Saw a lot of limbs blown off and 2 of his best friends get shot and killed right in front of him. He has always said that it isn't the guy's that died immediately makes you have nightmares. It's the guy's that got mortally wounded and as they were dying were calling out for their mother because they were just teenage boys. My father still has nightmares to this day but not as frequent as when he finished his 2 tours....RIP the men who fought and died in a war we never should have gotten involved in.

Jup. That opening scene is the true face of war. Spielberg showed how war truly is. Not the romanticized version that a lot of of American movies depict. It was so realistic that a lot of the d-day veterans in the cinemas walked out of the movie, and a PTSD hotline had to be opened for these veterans that relived that day and were disturbed by it.

Amazing when reading about WW2 that Normandy was even a success, so much went wrong. Thick clouds so planes couldnt bomb, tanks either getting stuck or getting dropped off early so sank, etc, so much of the plan went wrong but amazingly, despite this, the day was won. The courage and bravery of those men was amazing.

I honestly get the chill every time I hear or even think of all those brave soldiers running into certain death at the very front of the line. The unshakeable resolve you've gotta have to sacrifice yourself for your friends, family, and nation is perhaps the most honorable death a person can have I think. My grandpa talks about the war often, a war he wanted to join but couldn't do to health conditions. The sheer amount of patriotism back then is unrivaled to this very day. However despite not joining the war, the rest of his family did and he tells me stories passed down by them. Everytime he talks about Normandy, he cries. Sometimes I tear up too because I can FEEL what he and the whole nation was feeling on that day. Never forget those courageous souls that gave up everything so that we can have the lives we take for granted today ♥️
