Description
In the first part of this duo of DVDs we examined in detail the combined weight of naval, air and land forces and the tactic they used to break through Hitler's vaunted Atlantic Wall into Festung Europa. Now the veteran 50th Northumbrian Division had to fight its way inland to establish a beachhead that had sufficient depth to survive the inevitable German counter-attack. 69 Brigade had a highly successful landing and now had to fight its way through layers of German defence to its objectives eight miles away. While clearing through German held villages and defensive positions the northern warrior, Sergeant Major Stan Hollis, continued the actions that led to him receiving the only D Day Victoria Cross.
