Private Caparzo: Captain, the decent thing to do would be take her over to the next town.
Captain John Miller: We're not here to do the decent thing, we're here to follow f*cking orders!
Mistakes
In the scene where the soldiers are going through the dog tags to try and find Ryan, they all have the smaller chains attached to the tags. This is wrong in two ways: (1) those chains were not brought into use during WWII, as you can see around Miller's neck (they're a circular piece of medal attached with string); (2) when ripping the dog tags off a dead body, the smaller link that you see attached is broken away from the necklace around the dead body. It would be rare, if ever, that a soldier would take the time to reconnect the smaller chain. More likely, he would simply take the tag. See more...
Trivia
The scene where Private Jackson shoots through the German sniper's scope, killing him is based on Carlos Hathcock's 2 mile sniper shot through a Viet Cong's sniper scope with a scoped Browning M2. Carlos Hathcook was very famous for killing a General and later commanded a platoon of snipers. See more...
