I've got a problem with SPR, I don't like the way the historical facts (except the first 20 minutes) are forgotten.

There were so many TRUE and dramatic stories during the D-Day so I can't understand (or I don't want to) why Spielberg decided to make his movie using an "Hollywodian" scenario (to show Tigers & Waffen-SS?)

Nevertheless, on the D-DAY, Paratroopers of the 2nd battalion of the 507th PIR fought near Cauquigny. Lt Louis Levy and 10 men, stopped a column of german infantry supported by old-french Renault tanks, destroying several tanks with Gammon grenades and a bazooka.

Just read the book "US Airborne invasion of Normandy" by SLA Marshall and you'll find tons of TRUE stories like this one.
