In-Combat-Ible

by sammaher

Much to the dismay of Captain Miller, a 9th soldier is added to the group assembled to find and save Pvt James Ryan. However, he is unaware that this new recruit will alter the events of their journey, and transform the lives of all men involved, forever. First ever fanfic, please give it a shot! I own nothing but my OC. (Mature Content Inside)

1. Author's Note

Just a short author's note before I begin.

As well as this being the first fanfiction I have written on Saving Private Ryan, it is also the first fanfiction I have ever written. The film itself was a masterpiece so as I write this, I will be studying it very closely (probably to the point that I will never be able to watch it ever again). I am going to aim to be as true to the characters as possible and I will do my best to keep it historically accurate so if I cock it up, please don't hesitate to put me right.

This fanfic will be rated M for gore, lots of swearing and maybe a little (maybe a lot) of sexy time in later chapters.

Lastly, I don't want to bore anyone to death but before I get onto the actual story itself, I just want to explain why I have decided to embark upon this fictional journey. There is very little SPR fanfiction out there, and not a lot of it is worth reading (don't get me wrong, some of it is great and has partially inspired me to write this!). However, a lot of stories remain incomplete and, personally, there's nothing I hate more than being really invested in a story to find it hasn't been updated in 4 years. Now I am NOT claiming that I'm a fantastic writer- any writing I have done previously has been for school- but I am going to try to do my best to make sure that this is one of the better stories out there and that everyone enjoys reading it as much as I am already enjoying writing it.

I do not own Saving Private Ryan or any of its characters. If I did, it would have gone a lot differently.
