Story goes that after the landings they collected all but one cameramans footage , put it all in one bag to send it back to England ..... and promptly dropped it overboard . I have often wondered what was on all that film .
That story stems from director John Ford and the footage of his crew. The footage wasn't intentionally thrown overboard, it was in a duffel bag that was accidentally dropped in water. Small distinction, but important. What survived that was sent back to London for processing, and the government ultimately chose to not show the remaining footage, as there were too many casualties. So the footage, like any good government property, was sealed away and forgotten about until ~2000ish where it was rediscovered and rolled into a larger compilation called The Shooting War, which can be found here on RUclips. And, of course, that is only the Omaha footage. Film shot on the other landing sites survived, but a lot didn't manage to clear the censors, who were rightly worried about the impact such raw footage would have back home.
@@Izabual And you know it was accidental how exactly ? And FYI I didnt say it was intentionally thrown overboard .... go back and read .... I said it was promptly dropped , which is true , it never even made it to the boat . I didnt mention motives . Thats the main problem with historians nowadays .... you guys think it is ok to fill in motives when you have no clue why . All we KNOW is that the film hit the water , accident or intentional , makes no difference so why add to the facts ?
@@I_am_Diogenes Take a chill pill. "you guys think it is ok to fill in motives when you have no clue why" Back off. I made the effort to fill the gaps in with factual history (which matters a WHOLE lot, better than your halfassed "story goes" legend spinning) that can be EASILY verified, and you step right up to character assassination. That just tells me exactly who and what you are, somebody I'd cross the street to avoid. Bye now.

After this point, it's basically USA carrying the western allies 💀 But seriously, the bravery of the British, Canadian, and American troops on D day was incredible, as well as all the resistance fighters in all occupied nations, and all the Indian, Australian, and all other nations and people that helped end the Nazis, Fascists, and imperial Japanese.

По факту, боевых кадров очень мало. Только отдельные малые столкновения, зачастую это артиллерия либо дроны. Если вспоминать, то это либо танк "Алёша", либо утилизацию американской техники на "Брэдли сквер".

Through the gates of Hell, as we make our way to Heaven
Through the Nazi lines - Primo Victoria!
[Verse 1]
We've been training for years, now we're ready to strike
As the great operation begins
We're the first waves on shore, we're the first ones to fall
Yet soldiers have fallen before
In the dawn, they will pay - with their lives as the price!
History's written today
In this burning inferno, know that nothing remains
As our forces advance on the beach
[Pre-Chorus]
Aiming for Heaven, though serving in Hell
Victory's ours, their forces will fall!
[Chorus]
Through the gates of Hell, as we make our way to Heaven
Through the Nazi lines - Primo Victoria!
On the 6th of June, on the shores of western Europe
1944 - D-Day upon us!
[Verse 2]
We've been here before, used to this kind of war
Crossfire grind through the sand
Our orders were easy - it's "kill or be killed!"
Blood on both sides will be spilled!
In the dawn, they will pay - with their lives as the price!
History's written today!
Now that we are at war with the Axis again
This time we know what will come!
[Pre-Chorus]
Aiming for Heaven, though serving in Hell
Victory's ours, their forces will fall!
[Chorus]
Through the gates of Hell, as we make our way to Heaven
Through the Nazi lines - Primo Victoria!
On the 6th of June, on the shores of western Europe
1944 - D-Day upon us!

How crazy. If Germany wasnt losing to Russia in the East, this would never be possible.
The war was won with British intelligence, American steel, and Russian blood
@@ismaeljimenez6562 american steel when?
they sent a few shermans, but Russians did the work themselves, also had the materials (other than rubber).
