[QUOTE="aplusmnt, post: 286851, member: 1399"] CB was correct it was a very moving movie. Had some interesting history in about the photo and how it changed the hope of America and helped raise money for war. And some very moving war scenes to let a person see just what these young men did and endured for our freedom. I came away with two thought after watching it. One was the decision that Truman made to drop the bombs on Japan. When you see what the alternative was it was easy to see how he could make that decision. The Japanese were determined people and would have never given up. The other was how ironic it is that My 16 year old son might soon be fighting a war with North Korea that will in large part have to do with protecting the same country that the men of WWII gave their lives to fight against. As a side note not sure I would take any young children to see this movie it was pretty graphic with some pretty gory scenes. [/QUOTE]
