Normandy invasion (1944): D-Day German footage



Combat footage. Die Deutsche Wochenschau.6th June 1944, Normandy invasion from German perspective.As late as 13:35 the German 352nd division was reporting that the assault had been hurled back into the sea. From their vantage point at Pointe de la Percée overlooking the whole of the beach from the western end the German perception was that the assault had been stopped at the beach. An officer there noted that troops were seeking cover behind obstacles and counted ten tanks burning. However, as early as 07:35 the third battalion 726th Grenadier Regiment, defending Draw F-1 on Fox Green beach, was reporting that 100--200 American troops had penetrated its front, with enemy inside the wire at WN-62 and WN-61 under attack from the rear. Casualties amongst the defenders were mounting and at the same time that the 916th regiment, defending the centre of the 352nd zone, was reporting that the landings had been frustrated, it was also requesting reinforcement. The request could not be met because the situation elsewhere in Normandy was becoming more urgent for the defenders.

thats what happened when u have too many jews in ur financial system,goverment,security admin,policy makers,defense,AIPAC etc.Not only trillion of taxpayer's money went to Israel but our boys are used to fight for their cause in the name of fighting terrorism.A tyrant whom we funded to fight Iran,make up story of his WOMD,later invaded unilaterally. Do u c any peace coming? Bottom line is if we still be a cow with the rope held by the Jews, no matter what u do,the world surely will hate u.

Make sure to take it in its proper context. Some of the goose steppers tend to take it seriously. In its historical context its fascinating to watch, but as historical fact, well according to these video's the Germans they won the war all the way back to Berlin.To be honest I think the worst example was east prussia, where the German government lied so much the Russians were on top of the population before they were allowed to evacuate.

Theres not even half as much propaganda in this as in one of Hollywoods movies about WW2 where you see random g.i. kill 20 Germans before getting shot in his chest and kill another 20 before dying.

Shows how stupid you are then. Dont have to be unworthy of being known to hate a country, idiot.

Nice footage, but a load of bull, or propaganda if you would like. By the way, i do believe that the landing beaches were under COMPLETE control of allied forces by early afternoon, so I don't really think those were German soldiers walking, looking at allied equipmen.

Only people who aren't worth knowing hate the US. Thats the end of it
