Paul Anka wrote a masterpiece. As a soldier in the Army,as I grew up matured I realized the need to model what these soldiers did on 6 June and other field's of battle during W W 2.. Freedom and civilization was not a given. My dad was a B-17 pilot in Europe.These warriors defeated evil.

No one has mentioned that the theme song was written by Paul Anka. According to Wiki: Although he appeared in several films, and was quite believable as a nervous, hyper young soldier in The Longest Day (1962) (for which he also composed the theme music). What a talented song writer.

My grandpa told me, "If you ever join the Armed Forces, make sure not to take shit from other soldiers because you are where you're supposed to be, so take my word and fight your enemies with whatever you have left in you!" This was the day he died from lung cancer. He was in the Korean War as a Second Lieutenant in the Air Force Military Police, he protected France with pride! My other grandpa fought in Korea in the Army as a Radio Operator for the helicopters that came in, and even called in for more men when he needed to, he died of Heart Problems. My dad, now retired from fifteen years in the Marine Corps, he went into Afghanistan knowing that he had a price to pay for his country, and he protected his friends with any cost.

In Memorium: To: Greatest Generation Thursday 05:00 Hours 06June 2024 Subject: ...Operation Overlord... Eighty years ago today the coalition of the combined forces of the free world embarked upon the Great Crusade and launched the largest amphibious assault and landing on the code named beaches of Gold, Sword, Juno, Utah, and Omaha in La Normandie, France, to confront, engage, and overcome the tyrannical forces of Nazi Germany and the Axis Powers that held the Continent of Europe at bay since 1939. With intrepidity to the nth degree, the clarion call of "Duty, Honor, Country" was met by thousands of a coalition of combined Allied forces that spearheaded the Invasion of the Continent of Europe, ultimately leading to the defeat of the Axis Powers and the unconditional surrender of Nazi Germany. Victory in Europe was proclaimed 08 May 1945 (07 May in the West and 09 May in the East) with celebrations in Washington, London, Paris , and Moscow. If only these brave warriors could see what they had fought and died for...the resultant landscape of Europe in particular and the world at large today. To those who made the supreme sacrifice: Requiescat In Pace To those who survived to return to their homes and loved ones: thank you for your sacrifice and service. The world can never, ever, say Thank You enough, thus this posting to remind both the young and the old alike why you've been and always will be remembered as the "Greatest Generation".

Mine arrived right after D-Day as he was in the hospital not knowing if he'd be blind thanks to a live fire accident by another soldier when they shipped his squad out. As airborne, he stayed till after VE Day jumping at Remagen and other places. Then he came home to get ready for the Japan invasion he didn't think he'd survive when Truman gave the approval to drop the bomb. Invading Japan would have cost more lives than all we lost in both Europe and the Pacific combined. Tough call by Truman, but the right one.

Cheerful? Happy? NO! I cry every time I hear it! I saw the movie over 20 times and have the sountrack. Paul Anka's lyrics are anything but cheerful and happy. I am a veteran and will never forget June 6, 1944. Saving Private Ryan depicts the utter horror and brutality of that day in color. I am grateful The Longest Day was in black and white. It got the point across and I still see Red Buttons hanging from the church with the deafening bells ringing and the fear he felt that he would be spotted any second! All those young men slaughtered on Omaha Beach and the other beaches. To think, how many people will go to the beach tomorrow and not even know that June 6, 1944 was know as D-Day and signaled the start of the allies road to victory. May they all RIP and have our enduring gratitude.

The song and lyrics are upbeat and strong, courageous and determined. The theme is a victory march. The day was won despite overwhelming casualties. Imagine the courage it took for those men to step off the pontoons into a sea of blood from their comrades before them. They were a witness to the slaughter yet they still kept coming. I can't even imagine that kind of bravery. I don't even think it exists today. The Greatest Generation was truly the Greatest! God rest their souls and brave hearts.

My father trained them for D-Day in amphibious landings - he wasn't allowed to go because he was married to a "foreign national" - my mother was English whose home was 9 miles from where they practiced in England (not much of a security risk). So Dad was sent to the Pacific for Iwo and Okinawa. However, we were lucky enough to see the premier of this movie with the general portrayed by John Wayne. There were tears in his eyes for a lot of the movie, later he said it was for all the good men lost on that day, especially for those dropped on the German HQ. As an aside, Richard Todd played the Commanding Officer of the attack on Pegasus Bridge - in reality, he WAS the Executive Officer for that raid and the man who led the troops across the bridge to hold the other side. And the actor we knew as Charles Durning received the Silver Star for his actions @ Point du Hoc that day. ALL BRAVE MEN.

Without their sacrifice and victory, the French & British colonialism would be simply replaced by the Italian and Japanese colonialism (which means no decolonization of Africa and Asia), most of the Poles would be exterminated and Poland would be completely wiped out from the map, there would be probably cold war anyway between the USA and the new Europe and Asia, I think you can imagine the media censorship and Spain would stay fascist.

Justin Henry I think it is wishful thinking to think that the US has "done more good for the world than any [all] other country combined". What good has the United States done? Overthrown democratic governments and helped rebel groups establish dictatorships to support our interests economically? Killed many innocents in many countries in congressionally unauthorized bombings and attacks? The thing is Justin, and I don't want to be condescending when I say this; you don't know what you are talking about. Keep in mind that there is a DIFFERENCE between ignorance and stupidity; ignorance is not being informed of something, and ignorance is holding stupid or illogical opinions even AFTER you are informed of something. Under that, I call you ignorant, not stupid. If you really would like to go on with the argument, if you can call it that, that the US has done the most for the world than every other country combined, let's get some examples going here, and we can go from there. But I suggest you realize that we did not become a global superpower, and are not still a global superpower, because we were moral and nice to others. We displayed our ultimate power a long time ago to Russia, in a place called Japan, with two bombs.

What happened? The mental disorder of liberalism w/c makes people incapable of logical reasoning and critical thinking. The cure is turning to Jesus Christ, and conservatism.

David Villa What idiocy! Conservatism what conservatism? The nuttery they call conservatism these days has nothing to do with conserving anything. And Jesus would be repulsed by the asinine hateful crap that hides behind his name.

love this film for many reasons, but the best aspect imo is that it shows that the german commanders were smart skilled officers that were simply duped and led by a drug addict dictator that refused to see the writing on the wall.

I was fighting at the most terrible place of the invasion - the OMAHA BEACH - nine of ten of us lost their lifes - but we weren't heroes - we were 18 y. old youngsters - and in the landing boats approaching the coast - we suddenly had shit in our uniforms - but we ran for our lifes - only one of ten survived - and the next ten hours - nowadays no one can imagine what we have to bare - ...no, I don't describe what happened - no one would believe me - but from the 18 th July 44 I'm blind - ok ?

In school there was a kid who obsessed with military vehicles and played this song, the Russian anthem, and MCR in study hall. He later changed schools for psychiatric evaluation. The kid was also known for picking fights and trying to harm others. Ironically that's how we became friends. One day in 6th grade, he challenged me to fight that barely lasted a minute as for one I did MMA at the time and two I was a few inches taller and had much more bulk (he was a twig and I was the tallest in the grade then). So later he kept on hitting me at times because "[I was] the only one who [fought] back," and we did it as a game to each other as I didn't know it as anything else than friendly rough housing (as I come from a family that does birthday punches). So every time I hear this song it reminds me of him.

I think, like most people, that it's one of the all time great war flicks. Unfortunately I also hear that most veterans dislike it: The actors are too old and the battle scenes are historically inaccurate. Eisenhower himself walked out on it. Veterans prefer Private Ryan because it's realistic and factual. ' Hell with it . . I still prefer LD.
