History is a subject in which people learned of their culture and lands back round. Most people learn about history from textbooks and or oral traditions. Other had a passion to present history in a different way. A way that others would appreciate more and still others would appreciate less. Movies are just another way to tell a story. That's what history was, a story. There are many different stories that talk of our nations history or story. There were many important events that were documented in many films. This includes movies like "Glory", "The Patriot", just to name a few. This paper will concentrate on a smaller time frame though. This paper will deal with the area of time from our countries great depression, to the assassination of our countries youngest nominated president, John F. Kennedy. This area of time will deal with the adversity of this country. This counties strength in war, this countries corruption, this countries perseverance, and this countries screw ups. There are many things that are fabricated in these stories though. Things that will make Americans look less cruel or other ethnic groups that discriminated the Americans years ago. .
The United States army was and still is the strongest army in the world. But our forces faced a very grave challenge in the Second World War. That war brought about hard times. The Germans and the Japanese were just some of the people the Americans were fighting. There was a film released in the 2000's that depicted the World War well. The movie was called "Saving Private Ryan." This movie had a opening scene that depicts the battles that were very possible. This showed the United States forces landing on japans soil and attacking the Japanese forces. This battle was very deadly. Literally there were hundreds of lives were shown dying on film. The way war really was. Back then. The heartlessness, the racism, the torment that these soldiers. .
There was also the loyalty the was shown by the soldiers.
