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

REMEMBERING D-DAY (June 6, 1944): See what it would have been like to be an American soldier invading the beaches of Normandy, France during World War II. Rare color photos: http://www.chron.com/news/nation-world/article/D-Day-The-Invasion-of-Normandy-in-color-7965282.php | Chron

The Normandy landing photos from June 6, 1944, capture the chaos and danger of D-Day, with blurred, uneven images reflecting the fear, urgency, and determination of both soldiers and photographers who landed with the troops. Their power lies in their honesty, documenting the true cost of the invasion and shaping how D-Day is remembered as a brutal, hard-won turning point rather than a glorified victory. | History In Pictures
