The old movie I'm looking for tells the story of a family of 4? brothers who all end up involved in World War II. Title?

Brothers who all end up involved in World War II. Title? This old (50s-60s made) movie tells of close-knit brothers who go off to WW2, at least I think it's WW2.

One brother may enlist to keep another from having to go. One or more may get killed. I saw it on TV recently and would love to know the title.

The movie is named... The Sullivans and it was released in 1944. It's based on a true story of 4 brothers who were killed in action. Because of it The Navy changed its policy of having brothers from the same family under enemy fire at the same time - thereby leaving parents without a son.It's interesting to note that the storyline of Saving Private Ryan, starring Tom Hanks and Matt Damon is based on this decision by the Armed Forces.

In this movie, Hanks and a few soldiers are ordered to find Pvt. Ryan (Damon) and send him home because his 3 brothers have been killed in the D-Day invasion. Excellent movie by the way.

I may be wrong.... but I think you saw "The Sullivan Brothers" The five Sullivan Brothers were lost when the ship to which all five were assigned, USS Juneau (CL-52) was sunk on 13 November 1942. Many memorial efforts have honored the five brothers. Since their loss much confusion has resulted from the many myths surrounding both the Sullivan brothers and the Navy's policy regarding family members serving together at sea. News of the deaths of all five brothers became a rallying point for the war effort, with posters and speeches honoring their sacrifice.

Extensive newspaper and radio coverage of the incident made the loss of the brothers a national story, producing "a wave of humility and sympathy..." and condolences poured in on the Sullivan family in Waterloo, Iowa. To honor the five Sullivan brothers, the Navy has named two destroyers,USS The Sullivans. On 10 February 1943, the Navy officially canceled the name Putnam (DD-537) and assigned the name The Sullivans to a destroyer under construction.

Sponsored by Mrs. Alleta Sullivan, mother of the five Sullivan brothers, and commissioned 30 September 1943, The Sullivans served the Navy until final decommissioning on 7 January 1965. In 1977, the destroyer was donated to the city of Buffalo, New York, as a memorial in the Buffalo and Erie County Naval and Servicemen's Park. The second The Sullivans (DDG-68) was laid down on 14 June 1993 at Bath, Maine, by Bath Iron Works Co.

And launched on 12 August 1995 sponsored by Kelly Sullivan Loughren, granddaughter of Albert Leo Sullivan. Commissioned on 19 April 1997 at Staten Island, New York under the command of Commander Gerard D. Roncolato, the motto of the ship is "We Stick Together.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
