Revision as of 19:23, 20 April 2014

Vecchio was a young American soldier who fought during World War Two. He was part of John Miller's company at one time in Anzio. He was also present when Sergeant Horvath was in the company. He was mentioned only.

Biography

According to Miller he was a "goofy" kid who used to walk around on his hands and peed a "V" on everyone's jackets for victory and Vecchio. This could mean he was only a Private if Miller sees him as a child. Apparently he could walk around on his hands faster than his feet and was small, so small in fact it amazed Miller that he managed to become a ranger in the army.

He died sometime during 1943 most likely in or around Anzio.

In June, 1944, Miller and Horvath were in a church in Neuville and began talking about Vecchio and everything he would do. Miller laughed at simply remembering him which Horvath soon did as well once they started to talk about him.

Miller used Vecchio as a way to describe to Horvath how you rationalise between the mission and the men and how Private Ryan better be worth it especially after Private Carparzo's death because he wouldn't trade ten Vecchio's for one Carparzo or one Ryan.
