The top of this ethical analysis will cover the movie Saving Private Ryan, which is about fictional events that occurred during the Normandy invasion in World War II (IDMB, n.d.). During Saving Private Ryan, a secretary at the War Department typing death notices for soldiers killed in action realizes that three letters will be sent to the same family. She elevates the issue to her supervisors, who determine that three of the family’s four brothers have been killed in action.
