June 6th 1944 – The Light of Dawn | Full Series | D-Day Documentary
Watch ‘Einsatzgruppen: The Nazi Death Squads’ here: https://youtu.be/LS4-fx5H6gQ
Part 1 – 00:00:00
Part 2 – 00:49:31
This documentary, made entirely with remastered and colourised archive footage, traces Operation Overlord from its genesis to the Battle of Normandy. The film depicts the epic story of one of the greatest military operations ever conceived by man, from the summer of 1941 – when Churchill and Roosevelt first discussed the issue – to the touch down on 6 June 1944. It sets out Hitler’s strategy for preventing and countering the landings.
Beyond the military strategies that will be evoked, it will also be a question of recounting this crucial turning point of the Second World War from a geopolitical angle (the difficult alliance between London, Moscow and Washington) as well as from an economic angle (the preparations were far from easy). Without forgetting the anonymous combatants who paid a heavy price…

I was also a part of the D-Day
The Canadians were known for their devout Christianity.
Wow! How times have changed.
God bless these MEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No Gen.Patton?
We Lead the Way!
“Were you a hero, Grandpa? No, but I served in a company of heroes.”
US, 1st With the Most. UK, Last With The Least!!
Good Documentary but I wish it was more detailed
My compliments to all the cameramen who filmed this war. Without them, future generations would never experience the scale of this terrible war.
God Bless our armed forces and our flag. Shame on rhe lawfare that is happening.
What's with the censorship? I can't remember the last time I saw a war documentary with blurred photos.
I have thoroughly enjoyed this piece. Well done team.
It's too bad this was sanitized; makes it look like a Disney movie.
It doesn't show the true sacrifice or the he'll these men went through.
This should be teach at schools, my education system failed me here in the Philippines it never thought me about WW2 let alone this biggest single event that turned the tide of the war.. From elementary to college back in mid 90s to early 2000s not a single chapter or lesson about WW2 is ever mentioned I have to learned that event from movies and documentary such as this one..
“DADDY, I REMEMBER WHAT YOU DID ON JUNE 6,1944”. You were one of only 5 of your squad to survive when you flew your glider on D-DAY! You are gone now, but NEVER forgotten! Prayers for all the brave men and women who fought for our freedom—-THANK YOU!
Churchill had the hammer, Roosevelt provided the nails. Long story short, large groups of people don't typically travel by boat to take care of business. I'm proud and grateful we did with integrity. 🫡
War time is war time an god bless British girls
Good information but Everything is blurred
My dad was the second wave in on Omaha. Once the beach was secured etc. he was reassign to the 3rd. Army 3rd. Armored Division back as a tank driver under Patton.
DeGaul should been imprisoned. He was the biggest security threat.
My grandfather was in the 82nd Airborne and also jumped with the 101st Easy Company. I wish I could have seen him on here as a young man.
Absolutely fantastic documentary to coincide the 80th anniversary of D Day approaching.
Watching it 6-1-24 9pm now but I’m watching it again on June 6 2024 at 6am in the morning for the real feeling!!!!
Phucking awesome documentary wow !!!!
I hope they traced the identity of that US soldier in the victory parade who looked back.
This is awesome!!!!!!! Thank you
We live in a sad day that war and history needs to be blurred out.
47:33 crazy that there is footage of this attack
Montgomery was worthless!
No Patton?
The Great Crusade, God bless them all
Okinawa and iwo jima bigger.
My uncle Al was on Omaha Beach with his m 1 rifle
"How many of them could find Britain or France on a map? "
Well, that's a little condescending lol
