The First Airborne Assault on D-Day! (No AI - WW2 Documentary)

Описание: Shortly after midnight on June 6th 1944 men of the 2nd Battalion Ox & Bucks Light Infantry touched down in Normandy to capture two vital bridges, today known as Pegasus and Horsa. Their actions, the very first of D-Day have since been written into Second World War legend. In this video, we use the latest technology to share that story right here on Youtube.
