Thank you for posting these great WW2 videos. I love them! I used to watch many of them when I was a kid in the early 1950 The Big Picture was one my favorite. Paul in Orange, Ma.
(August 1944) Invasion of Southern France , Invasion fleet at sea, 45th Infantry Division, Gliders take off & land in France, DC-3's in formation, paratroopers, 451st Bomb Group B-24 Liberator, bombs impacting, strafing attacks, naval bombardment, 35th Infantry Division, barrage balloons, LST's come in, German fortifications, Greyhound armored car, runway construction, Normandy, US POW's liberated, mob rounds up collaborators, German supply depots captured, 3.7cm AT gun, Then I got bored
Annoys me when they talk about French Collaborators and just show women who took a soldier into her house only to end up pregnant and have her head shaved and be ostracized for yrs wheras the men were the ones activley collaborating by joining the SS and other organisations like the Milice

My dad went to Europe for w w 2 ! He said it was a big deal …
A very dark film. Hard to see all details.
It was war in the 40s, what did you expect, Hollywood quality film? Hardly.
What year was this recorded?
very interisting but to much fake battle noise
Not fake war noises, just the equipment used during the 40s, is not like cameras of today.
Too
Poor picture needs remastering!
It wouldn't be American if it doesn't have a good ol 50. Cal machine gun on it.
