I think one of the reasons the crew starting with the Sargent Major that Brad Pitt plays chooses to fight against seemingly insurmountable odds is what most of the crew has already been through. They already survived North Africa, Italy, France and now they are in Germany. PTSD has taken it's toll on all of them. This is one of the many factors in why they choose to fight against incredible odds. But, this movie is how men were then. This is how they were. I knew many men like this who had survived the war.
For me, as a little child, they were always very scary but disciplined men. They didn't talk about what happened to them ever in World War II but to say things like, "I could kill everyone on this street and not bat an eye." And they meant this. Many of them had been a member of a company of men and maybe they were one of only about 100 men and they were only one of about 4 that survived the trek from North Africa, to Italy to France to Germany. And yes, after that "They COULD kill everyone on the street without batting an eye" because they had already done that all across Africa and Europe.
To the best of my ability I write about my experience of the Universe Past, Present and Future
