I dont know why I was led to watch this. I have seen many documentaries on D-Day. But this one is absolutely the most accurate and best narrative I have ever seen. Im 74 now. But when I ran across it and started to watch it. I couldn't stop. Even as I make this comment, my eyes fill with tears 😢. My dad was in the US Army 29th division that landed on Omaha Beach that day, and I SAW HIM. At 1:01:54, he is the soldier sitting next to the cliff with others looking directly at the camera. My God!! He was probably 20-21. I know it is him because I have a couple of pictures of him just before joining the service. And one pic of him after they made it into Normady. He was one of the few lucky ones that made the landing, and God had a plan for. (ME!) My dad never talked very much about that day or the war. All he would say to me is, "Son, no man should ever have to endure and see what we had to face and saw. It was pure hell!" I know he had a Silver Star and several ribbons my sister has, and he was a Sargent Major when he was discharged. I have his strips. So I never pushed him to talk about it. I lost my dad in 1979 from a massive heart attack. I had the opportunity 5 years ago to go to Normady and visit Omaha Beach and the Normady Memorial American Cemetery. That day was a beautiful, quiet day, and I stood in the cemetery, I just lost it! Not only because God kept my dad safe but all the men who sacrificed their lives on that bloody day. Maybe it was just me, but it was one of the most chilling and saddest days of my life! Now I know why I was led to watch this documentary. I'm going to call my sister and tell her to watch it! Dad, I'll always love you for your service and giving us life ❤😢❤.

My family has a long lineage of military men, my father was a vietnam vet, I an Iraq/afganistan vet, and My grandfather the (greatest of us all) a WWII vet. My grandfather landed at Omaha beach and didn't leave Europe until the end of the war... it boggles my mind to think how these men did all that and still came back to the world to lead successful lives.... The Greatest Generation!

This is the best documentary I have ever seen on 2nd world war. It's not possible for me to forget such a beautiful piece of work, which I ended up watching with tears in my eyes. Really feeling sorry for those unknown faces, lost their young lives in a foreign beach with inhospitable conditions. My salute for those brothers again.

Wonderful and accurate work. From the son of a soldier who died in Normandy on July 4, 1944 and the stepson of an amphibious engineer officer who landed on Utah Beach on June 6, 1944. What a tribute to all those who fought to liberate France and the rest of Europe.

I watched this with tears in my eyes. Many young people today are shouting for strange freedoms that they already have. The same age as many of those in this documentary, who sacrificed so much. I served, but could never match what these people did. Although my children place place high value and express deep gratitude for what these people did, I'll make sure that they see this film, as should all parents and school teachers. That way they may have a greater understanding and appreciation for what we all have today.

My Uncle Ernest Gorveatt landed with Canadian North Nova Scotia Highlanders on that day. He fought to Caen and was wounded fighting the Panzer Division that they ran into. He returned later before Falaise Gap and fought all the way to Calais where a shell fragment sent him back and finally back to Canada. Thank you for recognizing the Canadians! They were ferocious fighters that showed no mercy after 11 of their brothers were murdered in a church cemetery.

Both of my grandfathers fought the Germans in WWII. I know that they took part in the fighting in France, though one of them told me he arrived after the storming of Omaha was over. He said he was glad he missed that one. Nonetheless he saw his fair share of horrors over there and fought in the battles depicted involving Patton's army. He helped liberate a concentration camp as well. After the war was over he came back and worked two jobs to support a family. My other grandfather had succumb to ptsd and alcoholism and spent the rest of his life homeless shortly after having children. I never got to hear his story. I am very grateful to both them for the sacrifices they made. They don't call them the greatest generation for nothing.

I just watched because of the film 🎥 . Did not understand a word . It was breath taking. I was watching with tears in my eyes because my grandfather fought on Omaha beach . Occasionally he told stories , he was not sentimental. But he had tears in his eyes as he recalled the day of landing at Omaha Beach. Understand why . God bless you Papa 🙏 ❤️

Right? I eat these documentaries up, and have ever since I was a kid, and there's some footage here I've NEVER seen. Not to mention some of the smaller details I've never had illustrated in such a way.

Im speechless. The greatest generation that ever lived.

Très beau documentaire, captivant. Tout y est, à la fois la hauteur de vue et la mise en valeur de l’individu. On est transporté, on se sent dans l’évènement, avec les soldats. J’ai particulièrement apprécié les expressions qui se lisent sur les visages, le soldat allemand qui joue de l’orgue dans une église détruite. Respect à tous les soldats, mais aussi aux cameramen dont certains ont perdu la vie. Sans leur courage et leur professionnalisme, il serait difficile de conserver la mémoire d’un tel événement. A voir et a revoir sans modération.

This makes me cry, so much pain in this world , so much sacrifice, most of not all of the people in this documentary do not exist anyways.

Прекрасное видео, большое спасибо авторам!!!

Thank you for this heartwarming documentary. This is one of the best

That ending though! Beautifully done, I’m watching it again.

In my younger years I was a huge absorber of WWII history. I’d pour over every book I could in the libraries, and truly found that time fascinating, and still do. As I grew up and fell into other things, I didn’t spend as much time enveloping myself in the stories of yesteryear, at least as deep as I had before. This video popped up in my feed, and I’m overcome with such a feeling, like a longing I wasn’t aware of experiencing, washing away for having stumbled into this. In short - thanks, sincerely.

It’s really amazing to see the amount of ships and planes and people that went over to save the world essentially. Greatest generation is an understatement.

@@SergeyPupkin09 товарищ - I think you will find that those that know their history are well aware of the Siege of Leningrad, the Battle of Moscow and Stalingrad. The Sword of Stalingrad (Меч Сталингра́да) is a bejewelled ceremonial longsword specially forged and inscribed by command of King George VI of the United Kingdom as a token of homage from the British people to the Soviet defenders of the city during the Battle of Stalingrad. On 29 November 1943, it was presented to Marshal Joseph Stalin by British Prime Minister Winston Churchill at a ceremony during the Tehran Conference, in the presence of President Franklin D. Roosevelt and an honour guard. Sadly the younger generations in both the West and Russia do not have much knowledge of this war. It is also sad that we do not share war stories as we were allies against Germany. Now it seems that unless a country had the huge numbers of deaths that Russia did then their efforts in fighting Germany and Japan are considered nothing. Is that the way to treat those that did all they could to help you? When Germany changed it's attention away from invading Great Britain and attacked Russia we could have let A.H. get on with it, but we didn't and offered to help you. When Germany initially invaded Western Europe and attacked the UK and the UK elsewhere there was no help from Russia. Roosevelt was naïve in thinking Stalin would join the West in restoring a free Europe after ww2. Stalin had no intention of allowing the countries it had liberated being free and he had no intention of allowing Russians to honour their heroes. The great Field Marshall Zhukov was ousted and the heroes of Leningrad were purged. Russia did acknowledge the Royal Navy for the Arctic Convoys and did acknowledge the RAF for it's bombing of Germany, something that many British won't do. It was a terrible war but one that had to be fought. To combat D-Day the Germans moved the 2nd SS Panzer Division (Das Reich) from the Russian front, along with other soldiers and equipment. In addition the RAF and USAAF massive bombardment of Germany severely disrupted Germany's war effort. How about you acknowledge the importance and heroism of D-Day and we can carry on acknowledging and remembering the importance and heroism of the Russians?

I have family from Czechia and Germany who suffered from the soviets. Not to mention that the soviets and the nazis were allies and best pals up until 1941 and even attacked Poland together. So get out of here with your crybaby attitude demanding OUR gratitude under a video about the liberation of WESTERN Europe

Sem dúvida o melhor é mais realista documentário sobre a invasão da Normandia que já assisti. Sou paraquedista militar , e sempre estranhei o horário é a calma das áreas de salto. Hoje vi porque , pois usaram filmes de uma exibição para o alto comando , e não a filmagem real , que não existiu. Parabéns , ótimo trabalho.
