The "light saber" effect is from tracer ammunition, they are not that bright in real life but its still pretty impressive.
First 10 mins of the movie “Every fifth round is a tracer” 20 minutes in “What are these lights sabers?!”
Saying they need to leave the kid alone and stop giving him a hard time shows the difference in generations, they weren't being that bad and war doesn't care about feelings, if you didn't toughen up and grow up, you got yourself killed or worse, you got those around you killed too.
Y'all were talking when the Captain explained why the crossroads mission was so important. Delaying the Germans until us supply lines could catch up to advancing troops and keeping the Germans from getting behind the US troops and stopping the US advance. So it was strategically important to hold the crossroads.
38:37 it’s their PTSD. They have been in the war for 3 years and lost a lot of their humanity in the process to survive. They are drunk and envious because Norman still has his humanity. Playing house with these German women isn’t going to change what they’ve done. At least that is how I always interpreted this scene.
The amount of times yall ask what is going on.....when those very questions were explained in the movie pretty obviously....amazing.
The colors in the rounds (bullets) are tracers. Its like that in real life. Tracers are used to visually track your bullets as you shoot.
As the old saying goes “War is old men talking and young men dying”
The real "War Daddy" survived the war and became an instructor despite having lost a leg.
