  • Eternal Gratitude for those of the greatest generation; giving their lives to defeat evil. Thank you all.
  • My deepest appreciation for all who have served, and are serving. May all the fallen rest in peace.

    This was excellent. Watching it on D-Day + 80 years.
  • Simply the best Overlord I've ever seen. The breaking it down day by day was brilliant! And the logical use of maps makes for clarity not seen elsewhere.
  • @mk8530
    As a WWII Buff this is, by far, the best one I've seen AFTER THE BEACHES
  • Love history stuff plus my grandfather was a paratroopers in the US army in Normandy he lived to be 99 he always went to the cemetery every anniversary and memorial day he was buried at Arlington 😒😒❀❀❀

    That iconic film of soldiers climbing off their landing craft at Juno beach was the Canadian Regiments the North shore New Brunswick regiment. Their film/ photo specialist Sergeant Bill Grant decided to mount his automatic camera on the bullock of the landing craft and just let his lens record history in the making.

    There is stock footage of Day 2 where they knocked out 2 recaptured French Tanks. Lot of the Men on the Coast were Eastern European Prisoner of war who changed sides. The picture changes when primary sources are looked into
  • @Estimated
    Thank you for not Blurring everything.
  • @mikemmikem2758
    I've seen plenty of WW2 documentaries but this is, by far, the best one I've seen as it shows the real battle of Normandy and the humanity lost - on both sides. This should be required viewing in history courses. Outstanding.
  • @syntheticbone
    You are missing a large piece,i discovered an amphibious Sherman tank near Torcross,which was salvaged, just during the preparations in England many died
  • RIP to all those brave souls who fought and died to preserve democracy and freedom. Please don't let their sacrifices have been in vain.
  • @jgonzalez101

    My Dad entered the fray of D Day. He talked about the losses and the grit of the soldiers. He then followed General Patton to The Battle of The Bulge. My Mom worked and prayed at home. ❀❀❀
  • This should be shown in every school and university in the UK. To show the sacrifice that was made and that freedom should not be taken for granted. For the freedom we have today was due to the sacrifice of the many.
  • The Best War Doco made. AND!! NO BLURRING OUT OF DEAD & WOUNDED!! πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘ People have to see these scenes to understand what munitions do to a human body during war. Not pretty at all.
  • So much film footage ! This vid. shows scenes that, even to historical junkies, are new and well edited.
  • It always fascinates me when I see old footage like this and wonder how they got it, a camera man running around in all these dangerous war zones close up in Personal with soldiers doing battle. What Incredible men all of them we owe them so much. πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦πŸ‡«πŸ‡·β€
