On this day in 1998, the film 'Saving Private Ryan' premieres. Steven Spielberg’s unflinching depiction of the D-Day landings and the Normandy campaign features an opening sequence so famously harrowing that it will redefine how WWII is portrayed on film.

The desaturated look of Saving Private Ryan (1998) was deliberate, inspired by WWII color footage and newsreels. Hollywood copied the washed-out palette without the context, turning a precise choice into a generic war filter.

In December 1944, the Germans launched a surprise offensive through the Ardennes Forest. Bastogne—a small Belgian town where seven key roads converged—became a critical objective. Between Dec. 17 and 18, the 101st Airborne Division was alerted and rushed in by truck to hold the crossroads at all costs. They won the race to Bastogne, but within days were surrounded. Cut off from supplies, the defenders faced blistering cold, shortages of food and ammunition, and constant German attacks. On Dec. 22, Germans demanded surrender. 101st Airborne Division Acting Commander Brig. Gen. Anthony McAuliffe replied: “Nuts!” For nearly a week, the 101st held strong until Patton’s Third Army broke through on Dec. 26, ending German hopes of capturing Bastogne. Their mettle helped blunt the last major German offensive of the war. May the legacy of their courage endure, like the white marble that marks their final resting places.

At 97 years old Tom Rice, returned to Normandy to recreate the parachute jump he made during the historic D-Day. Seventy-five years after leaping into occupied France as a young soldier of the 101st Airborne Division, Rice made a tandem parachute jump near the same area where he had landed under enemy fire in 1944. This time, the jump was a peaceful tribute to the courage and sacrifice of the soldiers who fought in WWII, and Rice described it as a perfect jump, saying he would gladly do it again. Tom Rice passed away in 2022
