Journeys to the Bottom of the Sea |
| Summary |
Thousands of Allied troops never made it to the Normandy beaches on that fateful day in June 1944. They, their tanks, boats and equipment still lie on the ocean floor, a forgotten reminder of the longest day of World War II - and one which is now casting new light on the historical record. This film investigates the underwater evidence off the American and British target beaches and, with the help of survivors, dramatic reconstruction, 3D graphics and a team of leading nautical archaeologists, re-creates what really happened all those years ago and explains why so much went wrong |
