1. Never seen this one before… seeing those GIs hiding behind that hedgehog hits hard.

2. My grandfather stormed Normandy. I can’t imagine what that was like. I wish I remembered more details when he talked about it which was very very rare. All I know is when he came home he drank until the day he passed.

3. Rangers!

4. Are these troops going to Ukraine?

5. Where footage?

6. First wave was almost completely wiped out. I imagine those dark dots up on the beach is them.

7. Are there more from this ?
