People are fragile. A small bullet can make a person fall forever. One second can definitely kill you. Never be grateful for your safety in a war, because you don't know the danger in the next moment. The war has left countless families torn apart, even if they have their own guardian angels, they are not immune.
The lives of eight people were exchanged for one Ryan. After all the hardships to find the lost paratrooper Ryan, he refused to obey the order and did not abandon his comrades-in-arms brothers, insisting on sticking to his fighting position. This kind of heroism seems very small in the face of life and death. Soldiers should be unconditionally unable to order. Formally, because of their resistance to the order, the rescue team paid a heavy price, but they survived under the protection of the death.
Facing a patch of tombstones with crosses, Ryan felt that he was alive and well, and he did not live up to the life cost of the rescue team.
Living well is the best consolation for the dead fighting heroes.
