I am sure your must have seen the interview where he talked about the making of the film regarding taking Ranville (Pegasus) Bridge during the D-Day landings.

 

In the film he played Major John Howard, OC of the force that took the bridge, another actor played Captain Richard Todd (him in real life), who helped to hold the bridge.

 

Fine actor, (a bit tricky playing someone else talking to err..you), on reflection he probably thought, hanging onto the bridge in the face of superior forces harder.
