The Real Guy who Saved Private Ryan | True Story of Francis L. Sampson

Saving Private Ryan was inspired by the WWII true story of Sergeant Fritz Niland and the man who rescued him, Father Francis L. Sampson, an Army chaplain who learned that three Niland brothers had been killed in action. In the Steven Spielberg WWII movie, Tom Hanks character, Captain John Miller, is a former school teacher who leads a mission to find Private James Francis Ryan, portrayed by Matt Damon, after it is discovered that three of Private Ryan's brothers have been killed in action. Captain Miller is fictional and so is the mission. Get to know the real-life WWII hero, Father Francis L. Sampson, and find out how the true story of Fritz Niland differs from Saving Private Ryan.
