Powerful images of the D-Day landings have resurfaced 80 years after they were taken by American cameramen on Omaha Beach and Utah Beach. French documentarian Dominique Forget rediscovered the forgotten footage and, alongside the cameramen’s ancestors, now wants to preserve and honour their memory. The footage, taken on 6 June 1944, gives a unique insight into how the landings played out. #AFP 🎥Carmen CUESTA-ROCA RICHARD TAYLOR COLLECTION / US NATIONAL ARCHIVES JACK LIEB COLLECTION / US NATIONA

Eighty years ago, nearly 160,000 Allied troops embarked on D-Day, the greatest military mission in history, which turned the tide of World War II. Thousands of brave Americans never came home from that fight, but for those who did, the decades that have passed haven’t diminished their memories. #DDay80 #DDay #WWII Video by Scott Howe, courtesy of DVIDS | U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs
