I'm guessing the movie with the long "arriving at the beach" scene is Saving Private Ryan. You can pretty much divide war movies into "before Private Ryan" and "after Private Ryan" 'cuz that scene revolutionized the genre. As far as people back home knowing how the war was going, or how rough/nasty it was- most people had no idea. The US was all-in during WW2 in a way that we've hardly ever been- but the government, the media, and Hollywood gave the public the "heroic John Wayne looking good in a uniform" version of the war. There was no TV then, so people read about it in the newspaper and heard radio reports. (Heavily sanitized reports.) The only visuals anyone back home got were newsreels which played for a few minutes before a movie would start in the theater. A big part of the reason Vietnam was a MUCH less popular war for the American public was that people would find out about everything on the nightly TV news, and it made the reality of the war much more in-your-face.

They didn't drink from the dead man's canteen because it was empty. Killing the panicking guy seemed unnecessary. Even in 1944 they had choke holds. Properly applied, you can cut off blood flow to the brain without impinging the windpipe at all. Painless unconsciousness in ~6 seconds. Should have been possible with like 5 guys on him.
