D-DAY | Narrated by Barry Pepper

June 6, 2019 marked the 75th Anniversary of the greatest military operation in history: D-Day. To mark this significant milestone in the lead-up to Remembrance Day, Legion Magazine has collaborated with Emmy-award winning Canadian actor Barry Pepper to present the next video in our award-winning video series - Military Moments | D-DAY.
The video takes us back to the spring of 1944. The Allies could not wait any longer. It was time to roll the dice on the greatest military operation in history. Together, the Allies-British, American, Canadian-would land on five beaches on France’s Normandy coast in the early hours of June 6-D-Day. Often overshadowed by our American and British bretheren, the video highlights Canada’s triumph at Juno Beach.

My eyes instantly flooded when you stated the number of allied casualties and Canadians losses . There’s no words that exist that can fully express how grateful I am to those heroes.

Every remembrance day I took my son out of school to attend the cenotaph at H H Knoll park by Lake Erie in Port Colborne Ontario.
He saluted every VETERAN .
I am so proud of our Canadian armed forces and my son !!!

Great video - thanks for doing this. Great sacrifice. A Kincardine WW2 vet on why he kept things to himself: "It's hard to remember what you are trying to forget." The burden of remembrance is on us.

The Canadians successfully captured their shoreline positions at Juno Beach and penetrated the farthest inland of any of the some 155,000 Allied troops who had landed on June 6, 1944, but D-Day was only the beginning of the struggle to liberate France.

Hi

[@Fish-tz8yn]

I'm gonna get a lot of flack for this but I don't think the British involvement overshadows anyone's involvement in D-day

[@ormrthedragon173]

[@SteepHoodGG]

Nobody who fought in any war and killed someone is a hero, they're a monster. That man (or woman) had a family.
