Generous doses of newsreel footage highlight this British wartime drama. Tom (Brin Stirner) is a typical 18-year-old Briton who goes into military service early in 1944. The film follows the protagonist through the rigors of training and the shock of his first battle. Tom is killed on D-Day--hence the film's title, an allusion to "Operation Ovrlrd.
"The Overturd seems to have lost his number 3?"

This was exactly what I was looking for! I've been searching for WW2 era basic training footage other than US for years.
