Battle of Carentan | Utah Beach to Cherbourg, Normandy 1944 

And i would rather jump from a plane with a parashoot than trusting my pilot to land his plane made from plankwood and sheet metal in a place where it wont shatter the moment it touches the ground

I agree 100% with you. The problem is that for small battles such as this one it is difficult to find precise information for everything. My sources offer precise positions of American units but little to nothing for the german side.

Of course. If I'll see more interest in the Normandy front I could cover the British and Canadian battles next. But my big project has priority.

A good question. It's basically because of the regiment's interesting history. The 101st was newly formed airborne division, but the 327th was formed in 1917. It was part of the 82nd when the latter was converted into an airborne division and was then transferred to the 101st. The 327th was also reinforced by a battalion of the 401st. Visually speaking I only wanted to make it easier to distinguish the glider infantry from the rest.

Ι work in mainstream TV and film and I even worked together with the VFX Supervisor of Band of Brothers. I am fully aware of how difficult it is to film a sequence like that and the result is fantastic.

@@ww2-epicbattles the issue is the dramatisation, not any technical fault or inability to capture something... I just can't abide calling any such battle scene an impressive reanactment because it bares no semblance to actual combat; the ranges, the process, the organisation, etc... actors just sitting, lying or walking out in full view in front of each other at a hundred or couple of hundred meters to be killed... to be fair you didn't call it accurate, you simply called it a reenactment of brutality.

@@ww2-epicbattles for the record the visual effects in Band of Brothers were excellent and about as realistic as it gets. so well done. don't take my criticism to heart, it's an annoyance at all directors' choices to never depict battle realistically, not the overall quality of the scenes

@@greg_4201 In a TV show the producer is the king of the project, followed by the writers. Directors have little to no creative freedom.

@@ww2-epicbattles Directors, Producers... whatever. The scenes don't depict battle; they depict a theatrical parody of battle.
