ok, those few brits would get ripped apart in less then 1 minute in this situation, this is more hollywood-inspired then realistic.
some mg-bursts and handgrenades and they would be gone BUT! its a nice production with good effects, you know, for a "homemade" video, i have to say ;-)

@deadontherunway this indeed is pleasing to hear as a British Citizen. I would also like you to know that should Canada or New Zealand or any other former commonwealth country ever go to war we shall support you in turn. your sacrifices in the world wars have not been forgotten, and we have a debt to repay

This is awesome, great work on this! Very touching and heartfelt.

@tonyndbutt Canada Australia and many other nations that still see the english royal family as their queen will fight next to the UK and model their military accordingly

Also the Cdns didn't seize the Merville Battery, that was a Brit Battalion given that task, the Canadians covered the retreat of the Brits to the fall back position at the Le Mesnil crossroads. And yes, the helmets do look like bowls, they were specially made without the common lip of the Brit/Canadian mk. II 'Pudding bowl" style helmet to not foul the rigging lines when jumping out of the plane. Commonwealth tankers and dispatch riders used helmet shells of the same design
To be completely honest this looks like a video someone made in their back yard.

@TheTemplar117 Well, it was shot on video so you are correct with that assessment. And if your backyard is a huge piece of farm land... then sure, we shot it in our backyard!

@tonyndbutt ok they landed in Normandy on Juno Beach. Canadian paratroopers never dropped into Normandy. Look it up. And those are German paratroop helmets

@lovatojonasfan1 The 1st Canadian Parachute Battalion was trained and equipped to British Airborne standards, and thus was easily incorporated in to the British 6th Airborne Division. As a result, when the 6th Airborne jumped in to Normandy, so did the Canadians. The battalion was given the task of capturing and destroying the Merville gun battery.
And the helmets are not German. This is a 1st Canadian Parachute Battalion re-enactment unit and their stuff in genuine.

Ok two things. 1. Canadians didn't jump into Normandy. 2. Those helmets were German paratroop helmets.
