D Day was an extremely violent business and we would all do well to reverence the gallantry of those men who went into that hell for us all.

The bad language thing really does seem to upset some people doesn't it. it was the sound of spandau machine guns, and I suspect the smell of death rather than bad language that left my dad with nighmares the rest of his life.

I don't know what the answer is. Its a film I avoided taking my Dad to just in case it brought it all back to him.

Tom hanks is a great artist and I suspect he was making a serious effort to to help us understand what happened. If he used that language in the script . Maybe we should respect his best efforts.
