I would have included "Operation Neptune" by Craig Symonds. Very good on the naval aspect in a way none of the other ones are. Most, if not all of your video, is from German sources, which is deceptive. You'd have no idea there were losing watching it.
I've considered the Symonds book but haven't committed to it yet. I am confused by what you mean by German sources. Do you mean the video clips I put in? Those appear to be either French collaborationist or German filmmakers, I'm honestly not sure which. I have to use what I can find as open domain as I'm not willing to go through pay walls for much of the archival footage. I thought it would be interesting to show the view of D Day from the other side of the hill.
Excellent books.....have you read "Air War Normandy" by. Richard Townshend Bickers, opinion?......I have always viewed the movie "The Longest Day" more a character study of Normandy than actual-factual history....The Symonds book is good as well.
No I haven't heard of the Bickers book. I considered the Symonds book but was burning out on Normandy stuff so when I do another D Day vid I can put in that one. Longest Day film I really like, excepting the Duke, reflecting the time period it was made. I really like its feel and tone.
@@onepingonly1941 Well, it was better than his performance in the "The Conquerer."....how about doing one on the Battle of Crete? That would be a change from Normandy. Just an idea....
