War Is Hell, after all...

  • Omaha Beach. To wit: "MOMMA! MOMMA!!" Don't forget the guy who's wandering the beach in a daze, looking for his severed arm.
  • Also the unfortunate radioman next to Captain Miller on Omaha.
  • The sound of the approaching German Tiger was accurate enough to give many veterans in the audience flashbacks.
  • There's also the scene where Mellish gets into a hand-to-hand fight with an SS soldier, and loses by getting stabbed in the chest by a combat knife. Slowly overpowered, the knife slowly sinking into his chest until he bleeds to death.
    • More so if you understand German, as the SS soldier is, with a slight mocking tone, telling Mellish to stop struggling so that his death will be easier.
  • Any of the battle scenes in the film could qualify. They did a really good job of showing you how scary and dangerous battlefields are.
