A must see - incredibly powerful message

Rating: Null/10 (2 August 1998)

One cannot see this movie without gaining a new appreciation for what World War II was like. Today's high-tech weapons make it easy to think real people are not involved or affected.
It ain't like that at all. As a Vietnam Vet, I have vivid images of the horror of war but I still never fully appreciated the magnitude of loss that was faced by the young kids during D-Day.
Thank you Mr. Spielberg for giving us a glimpse of what war is really like.
Every year, each US citizen should see this film ... just before Veterans Day would be an excellent time. EVERY DAY we should reflect on the freedoms we have (and too often take for granted) and thank our veterans for the sacrifices that made freedom a reality.
