I believe Spielberg owns the rights to his life story.

This man's story is just incredible. Surviving the death camp of Mauthausen in WW2 and making his way to America. Joining the military and volunteering while not even a citizen. Outstanding exploits in Korea and then as a POW for years helping and saving many of his fellow soldiers using his knowledge from the death camp. Stealing food and ignoring sure execution if caught and having his feats forgotten for 50 years till the military reviewed his and others exploits. A great American.

really. I'm amazed people from Hollywood hasn't come and asked if they can write a screenplay based on his life....They'd probably F%$# it up though if they did.
