"Keep in mind, american, remember normandy and how the germans were kicking your asses on the beach? well, if you'd spend more time brushing up on history instead of being the intellectual equivalent of a jerk-off you'd know that american forces held the left and right flanks while the canadians went straight through the middle inflicting extremely heavy casualties. Guess they left that part out in saving private ryan. "
