A Ryan közlegény megmentése igaz történet vagy csak ki talált történett?

The movie is actually based on the Niland brothers, four siblings who all served in the U.S. Army during World War II. Three brothers—Robert, Preston, and Edward—were supposedly killed in action, which caused their remaining brother, Fritz (whom the titular Private Ryan was based on), to be shipped back to America so that the Niland family wouldn’t lose all of their sons.

Niland testvérek esetét részben dolgozza fel.
