当小分队找到雷恩时，队长告诉了雷恩他的哥哥们都死了。旁边的雷恩的战友正好走来，有这么一段对话：
“Ryan lost his borther。”
“oh，which one？”
“all”
听了这个对话，眼泪都会掉下来。登时想起了中学时英语老师说的both和all的区别，all代表3者或3者以上。
任务完成，米勒中尉临死前说道：“Earn it……”
这句话很难直译，大意为“别辜负我们（以后你要好好的活着）”。
Private Reiben: Well put your money where your mouth is and do it! Do it! Pull the trigger already!
Sergeant Horvath: You don't know when to shut up. You don't know how to shut up....
Corporal Upham: Captain, please!
Captain Miller: Mike? What's the pool on me up to right now? What's it up to? What is it three hundred dollars -- is that it? Three hundred? I'm a school teacher. I teach English Composition in this little town called Addley, Pennsylvania. The last eleven years, I've been at Thomas Alva Edison High School. I was coach of the baseball team in the springtime. Back home when I tell people what I do for a living, they think, well, that, that figures. But over here its a big, a big mystery. So I guess I've changed some. Sometimes I wonder if I've changed so much my wife is even gonna to recognize me whenever it is I get back to her -- and how I'll ever be able to tell her about days like today.
Uh, Ryan -- I don't know anything about Ryan. I don't care. Man means nothin' to me. It's just a name. But if -- you know -- if going to Ramel and finding him so he can go home -- if that earns me the right to get back to my wife -- well, then, then that's my mission. You wanna leave? You wanna go off and fight the war? Alright. Alright, I won't stop you. I'll even put in the paperwork. I just know that every man I kill the farther away from home I feel.
