Blog Discussion Day:

Derek, Zach G, and I all watched the Boy in the Striped Pajamas.. see my assigned blog.

Alex watched Band of Brothers Part 1: It was about a group of guys who were in a regiment who had a very tough leader. Ross from Friends was in it! He played the Loutenent.

Hannah watched Saving Private Ryan: Starts out with the D-Day invasion, Their main mission is to find Private Ryan because all of his 4 brothers had died in the war and they couldn't have a whole family die in the war. They finally find Private Ryan and he says that he doesn't deserve to go home any more than any other soldier. It was a lot about the journey back to try to get Private Ryan home.

Dirk watched U571: people tryed to find out German code messages so we could figure out what their plans were and we eventually found out their code and had the help of German speaking people.

Nic and Shelby watched Volcuri: It was about the plan to take over Germany and kill Hitler by German people.

Cesar watched Defiance: It's about 3 brothers who help people escape from concentration camps because they were Jews themselves. They ended up taking them to the woods to hide them, but they ended up having a lot of Jews in the forest and they end up getting very greedy and they have to kill some of them. The three brothers ended up surviving WWII.
