anyone who tried to stop us.
Ow!
McGinnis, go!
Run them down.
AAGHH!
Gunfire
(Screams)
found myself underground.
Explosion
secret network of tunnels.
To move men and supplies.

Gunshot
They were close.
But I didn't know where,
or how many.
The beach invasion is underway,
and thousands of paratroopers
have already dropped
into occupied France.
Thousands more are
headed our way.
To protect the drop zone, we
have to take out that main gun.
I found a way in.
Where?
There's a small gap between
the wire and the north wall.
You can only see
it from the roof.
Okay.
I'm listening.
Why don't you send
Mallon to the roof.
He can tell the boys to fire
while you and I crawl up.
You bloody nuts?
Even if we get
past that pillbox,
how we gonna
take out the 75?
We have to get close,
fire flat like a bazooka.
(Laughs)
It's only a matter of time till
German reinforcements show up.
I only have five rounds.
We have to get close.
We hit'em point-blank.
It'll work.
Let's do it.
Ross, you fire on
Mallon's signal.
Let's go.
Alright.
I could hear the enemy.
(German in background)
Nein! Dis en ein d'cessant.
(German voices)
(MISCELLANEOUS TALK)
[GERMAN OFFICER]
SPEAKING IN GERMAN
We had taken
the command post,
above ground,
everything had gone quiet.
had taken the beach,
or they were dead.
MacPhee and I made our
way to the stone wall.
This would be our only chance
to take out the main gun.
From the roof,
Mallon would give the
signal for our guys to open up.
Gunfire
through the minefield.
Toward their gun.
We needed to get the mortar
close enough
to fire it point blank.
We couldn't afford to miss.
We gotta get out front.
Brace on the tree.
Ready?
Go!
Explosion
Gunfire
Gunfire
Ready!
Explosion
Explosion
Don't shoot.
We surrender.
Drop your weapons.
We surrender.
Varaville had us outnumbered.
but we took out their gun,
we captured more than
eighty prisoners.
We radioed the
code word, 'Blood'.
It meant 'C' Company, the first
Canadian parachute battalion
had completed the mission.
Bitte! Bitte! Bitte!
[speaks in German]
We surrender.
Our tank made it
off the beach.
And into town.
The fighting was
street to street.
House to house.
Dirty fighting.
The place was
crawling with snipers.
Gunshots
We hated snipers.
You caught one, you
didn't take prisoners.
We made it through town
supporting the infantry.
Then headed to our
next objective.
We stopped in the
French countryside.
You could hear the
war in the distance.
But here,
everything was calm.
Three, this is three,
three alpha over.
Three, this is three,
three alpha over.
For a few minutes the war
seemed a long way a way.
Nice eh?
Sarge!
The C.O. Wants us to rendezvous
at a crossroads,
a mile up-road.
One other thing, our
we're the only ones left.
Let's saddle up.
Out of all the tanks
in our squadron,
we were
the only troupe left.
McGinnis!
Start us up.
On our way to
the rendezvous we learned
that snipers had killed
a number of our comrades.
Friends of mine
from the same unit.
Gunshot
Sniper.
See anything?
Farmhouse.
Second floor!
There's movement
in the window.
McGinnis.
Take us in.
It's just a sniper.
That bastard just shot at me.
Nells!
One round HE.
Let the infantry deal with it.
I said take us in.
That is a Goddamned Order!
Maybe I wasn't rational.
Maybe I was angry.
So we went in.
Hit the farmhouse.
Load one round HE.
We're loaded.
Fire!
Sir!
FIRE!
SIR!
What the hell are
you waiting for?
There's people-
Civilians
I'll do it myself!
Gun shot
Monsieur!
Monsieur!
[yelling in french]
Gunfire
Sarge,
we gotta go.
Leo!
This sniper, she was
been killed that morning.
I had done my best
to protect my men.
To make our objective.
And to come through
in one piece.
But the victory, well,
comes at a price.
What happened, Sarge?
Did you get'im?
Hey.
What happened?
Driver.
Let's go.
We had broken through
the first line
of German defense
on Juno beach.
Hitler's Atlantic wall
was finally breached.
For many of the German
prisoners, we captured,
their war was over.
But for many of my men,
they had lost so much more.
In there, move.
Sit!
(Speaking German)
On your knees!
(Speaking German)
You goddamned
sonovabitches!
Canesmen!
These basterds!
Canesmen!
They killed Apple.
ARGH!
Easy.
Easy brother.
(Sobbing)
He was just a kid.
He was just a kid.
Lieutenant Grayson.
He took this bunker by himself.
You shoulda seen'im I-
Sarge and I were
just along for the ride.
You shoulda seen it.
All by himself.
By mid-morning,
The Regina Rifles,
with support from the tanks
of the first Tsares
became the first allied unit to
secure a beach head on D-Day.
Many of the men,
many of my friends,
paid for the victory
with their lives.
Of the one hundred and
ten men of 'A' Company,
only seventeen of us
made it off Juno Beach.
Sir.
Lieutenant Grayson!
What now?
Get the men,
let's go.
Yes sir.
This footage of Canadian
troops storming Juno,
of D-Day seen around the world.
On that day our troops pushed
further into France
The battle of
Normandy had just begun,
but within a year,
Hitler would be defeated.
Of the sixteen thousand
Canadians who landed on D-Day,
almost one thousand men
were killed or wounded.
Sometimes I wake my
wife up with my talk.
[laughing]
So she tells me in the morning,
but yeah I dream a lot.
I talked to a fella
this morning down there.
Same thing,
I can close my eyes and,
and just see pictures.
it's been over
sixty years so
a few things fade away,
questions are asked that ah,
relive the situation.
Some terrible things
way back in there.
That we just
don't talk about.
I don't know, just
a feeling I have,
that I was supposed
to be there.
And I was.
Well I'm glad
I was there, but
I don't want to go back.
Where do I start you know?
Y-you come up with that saying,
it's hard to remember which,
what you,
tried to forget.
[laughing]
I took part of
the biggest Armada
that ever sailed the sea.
Ah, you could almost
walk to f-France.
Jump from one piece of
equipment to another.
I was ah,
section leader,
and I was in 'B' Company...
...And it was with,
I had twelve platoon.
And ah,
that's twelve men,
you were just like a,
their Father or p-pretty well,
it was quite a responsibility.
You know the big
adventure for us?
To leave
home...
a-and be out
on our own
really in
a sense.
