Hi rick062,
The movie you are looking for is called "The Fighting Sullivans", also
known as "The Sullivans".
"The wartime forerunner of the story told in Saving Private Ryan
(1998) is this emotionally gripping depiction of the Sullivan boys of
Waterloo, Iowa. Amid all the tales of personal tragedy in WW II, this
one stands out. The five inseparable brothers enlisted together after
Pearl Harbor and were all assigned to a battleship that ended up at
Guadalcanal--where all five brothers died in action. A moving tribute
to those who gave their lives in the last world war."
