I didn't know what to expect since this movie had some 1 and 3 star reviews as well.
Obviously the equipment is no longer practically available to do huge battle scenes.
But this a different kind of war movie, revisits the memories of a gentleman who
did his duty for his country in WWII as so many others did.
Don Smith's son has created this film independently without hollywood-type
combat equipment and effects. But the message is well done.
The movie is filled with the emotion that these young men had in love and war,
and as a true story, is especially meaningful. It is the REAL story of his father,
It is a war story, a love story, and a REAL story, all in one.
Every WWII vet could identify with a lot of it, and every
kid should have a chance to see it and remember what our
Greatest Generation sacrificed for us, just doing their duty.
A generation of quiet heroes who we should never forget.
I also recommend this for any history class as it is factual as well as
great insight into the war experience of combat infantry.
Thanks for a great movie, Thad!! For me, this is a keeper.

Good rendering of what our vets went through the winter before the end of the war.

I REALLY ENJOYED WATCHING THIS MOVIE AND IT IS WHAT I WANTED. I AM INTO HISTORICAL AND MILITARY MOVIES TO WATCH.
