I thought the movie was incredibly realistic. I felt that I was there. My father was an Assault Boat Officer and 5" Gunnery Division Officer during World War II. He was only 21 yrs of age , he had 90 men under his division. He would tell me how so many young men fought the war. This movie really help me visualize more what my father went through . I liked the movie so much I'll probably watch it again.
