My father in law survived

Rating: Null/10 (21 May 2011)

I would just like to comment that my father in law survived in the platoon depicted in this movie. He served his country bravely and almost died. His son took up the torch and served in the army for 20 plus years. I would just like to see him credited for sacrificing his life. And so many have prospered from this movie, however he almost died and no recognition was bestowed upon him. It was a good movie however i do not think that anyone knew that there is a true survivor... that is still living and re living the traumatic cost to himself and his family.I merely wanted the public to know that the war was real and it effected families and ours in particular. I am not sure where the plot was developed, however my family recognized the time , the platoon and when My father in law served. This may not be of value to anyone else but our family. I just wanted this fact to be known, due to all the falseness that can be presented in movies.
