Summary:
A World War II drama about a handful of men on a mission. Capt. John Miller and his squad and medic painstakingly make it past the many obstacles and finally take one of the enemy's concrete pillboxes on top of the bluff. But no sooner have Capt. Miller and his men paused for a smoke then they are ordered to try to locate a certain private, James Ryan, who parachuted into France the night before. His three brothers have all recently been killed in combat, and government policy dictates that he should return home lest his family be deprived of all its male offspring.
