Roberto E. Reyes And did not met Bond at Normandy.

@@bluemarshall6180 As Private Flanagan..

Gert Frobe's name in the cast list translates as Cpl Coffeepot!!!

Roberto E. Reyes I thought he looked familiar

This movie has two Bond villains and a James Bond.

Im watching on the 78th anniversary of D-Day

Best way we can thank them is to stop these democrats from destroying america.war is war.

RiP si

"Wir haben gegen den falschen Feind gekämpft."

Not if you were German.

He and his wife survived the bombardment. He's written about in the book The Longest Day.

d3in0nychu5 liberation has come after 4 years of occupation. of course he ischeering. France will finally be free

i prefer the poor german soldier. hell, they send thousands of ships, just to kill me^^.

d3in0nychu5 That is a really great scene and a couple of others I find to be hysterical from earlier in the film include: Red Buttons character ending up stuck on the clock face, The Frenchman listing to Resistance radio and hearing “John has a long mustache”, The Germans in the bunker freaking out saying “The INVASION IS HERE!” Then after this scene Sean Connery’s character in the water The two soldiers ( the moustache one played by Bernard Fox) trying to send a message with the pigeons then they fly towards the Germans “They’re going the wrong way! Not towards the Germans the other way, the other way” “Dam Traitors!” The arrival pass the barricades and the same Frenchman welcoming them with a bottle of wine “Viva France” “Welcome Americans” Then at the bridge scene the bagpipe player crossing in front with Connery and another soldier on the other side saying “There here goes he’s at it again! Have you ever heard such a bloody racket in all your life?!” to which Connery replies with “Leave to an Irishman to play the pipes! I was not expecting there to be so many funny moments in this film when I saw it. Also I love the island attack scene in the film “Patton” and he confuses Rommel’s men to which he says “Rommel you dam magnificent Bastard I READ YOUR BOOK!!”

I felt sorrier for the horse. And all the coffee it was carrying.

@SS Standartenfuhrer The last people saying the French and Belgians had put up a poor fight were the Germans.

Viva french fries... 😆

One of my favorite scenes because he recognizes the harsh reality of liberating his homeland.

What a lovely French old man.

Amazing doc on you tube kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nZOiqc103p_KlZ8.html

I would also mention the ox and bucks doctor staggering back to the right side of Pegasus bridge

Fernand Ledoux 1897-1993...

😂😂😂😂

My Dad ( Navy ) and Uncle ( Infantry ) were there too !

I'm not saying he's wrong but I'd also try to get cover because of the artillery lol

@@chrisd2051 after 4 years of being under German occupation I’m pretty sure that that’s the last thing on his mind

'I say, old chap; do get under cover, there's a good fellow. Our shells can't tell you from a bloody jerry, you know.'

Karl Stromberg is also in the movie

All the actors are in this movie.

❤War........Sunshine😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎💛💛😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎

Thank you for that.

That line gives me chills. I salute all the French veterans who never surrendered and continued the fight against impossible odds even when their country was under occupation.

There were 5000 allied ships in the English Channel on that day.

@@iggyarctic5711- Officially there were 6,939 ships involved, including 1,213 warships, landing crafts, destroyers, cruisers, etc. roughly divided between 5 beach heads. Most were landing crafts.

Makes me wonder what the total would be if they weren’t fighting in the Pacific…

poor chubby kaffee kan grabs his neck then rifle in futility eyes bulging at the armada. One of the best short silent reactions ever in film oh the mule was pretty good too.

No worries, he became a gold magnate and was later sucked out of a plane after attempting to irradiate the US gold supply.

most underrated comment here

The general quality of German soldiers on the Atlantic Wall defences was low. 'Stomach' battalions made up of men with ulcers and other medical complaints, older men, some training units, low-intelligence truck loaders, etc. Polish, Russian and other captured troops young enough to serve as impressed soldiers. The only half-decent Infantry unit, the 352nd Regiment, was re-building itself on the Atlantic Wall, and found itself on Omaha beach, putting up the best defence of any on the Wall. One foreign soldier there was famously a man born in Korea, pressed into service in the Japanese army in Korea, sent to fight Russians during the Battle of Khalkin-Gol / Nomonhan Incident in 1939, captured and forced to work in the Russian army, transferred West to defend Moscow, captured by the Nazis, put into a 'Ost-Battalion', sent to the Atlantic Wall, captured by the US, then eventually sent home to Korea, to find himself stateless, as he was officially dead and hated by Koreans for joining their enemy's army. There's a movie about him.

Of course, he knew absolutely no English so his voice is dubbed in the movie (his agent lied and told Cubby Broccoli that he spoke English fluently.)

Where is it? Looks a bit like Vierville?

@@eklund86 i forget exactly but i found it on the internet with a little research! i was there on June 6 and they were having a party in the courtyard!

@@michaelmaxwell1523 , found it. Ste Honorine des Pertes. The buildings can be seen in google street view.

Hello. Please check your facts. I am not sure myself, but the Battle of the Phillipine Sea could have fielded more ships. Possibly.

And So was James Bond!

Too bad Muldoon didn't capture 'Koffeekans'.

But, then we wouldn't have had the movie Goldfinger...!!!

But wouldn't Koffeekan's humiliation at the hands of Muldoon give him the impetus to become a SuperVillain?

Tout à fait d'accord,la mémoire doit étre protégée

il y a tellement de nations à cités en plus de toutes celles que tous le monde connait à remercier que l'on ne pourrais faire une liste...

🇳🇱

au début de la guerre les maudits soviets étaient les alliés de l'allemagne; après avoir signé le pacte de Ribbentrop Molotov, ils ont divisé l'europe de l'est comme deux bêtes, l'ours et le loup, donc pas de mention honorable à la bête soviétique

As would anyone.

It's almost ironic at the same time your army was trained and made what it was by a German! And the cavalry by a Pole and a Hungarian if I'm not mistaken?

Von Stueben, Kościuszko, and Pulaski...yep, and thank G-D for all of them...

There are great possible movies out of them.

and the French tried to F us the second the war was over with the XYZ affair....then 80 years later by almost siding with the Confederacy. They didn't side with us for our ideal but for our conveniece

With Guns & Ships and so the balance shifts--we rendezvous with Rochambeau, consolidate their gifts!

@terry waller They were also complicit in starting the war by annexing Poland once the Germans had attacked it a few weeks earlier.

@terry waller and Putin has been trying to get back some of the old Soviet territory for years. He wants the Soviet empire to rise again.

Yeah, it was just peachy of those Soviets to liberate Eastern Europe and then not leave for decades. Super cool of them.

hms belfast was the one who opened fire first

@@columnedfox5508 really!!! What is the name of the 2nd cruiser open fire.

You're typical idiot Nazi.

@@timmaloney9976 Wow.. Dude.. you need help. Grow up. Your reading comprehension sucks.

@@captainobvious9233 In my defense, I was so exhausted I couldn't think straight as that shows.

He looks like he got conscripted and don't even really want to do his job at all. Poor dude!

curiousity: hes Gert Frobe: Sean Connery "Goldfinger"(1969) nemesis

WAAAH WAAAA WAAAA! He's the man, the man with the Midas Touch!

And I didn't expected him to talk, I expected him to die.

The British and Canadians plus the European free forces.

He does exist, in the book of the same name that the movie adapted

Pat Wiggins, I assume the germans.

No one, it's war, shit happens in war.

George Marshall & the US taxpayer

True, but it was navy destroyers whose captains risked grounding their ships that provided the close in artillery support that greatly helped get them off that beach.

@@lawrencewestby9229Yes this was very true - I meant the pre-landing bombardments and also the air bombardments as well. The Navy destroyers proved invaluable also on Juno and Sword.

db2664 I absolutely agree, area bombardments against entrenched or hardened positions was rarely effective. It wasn't at Normandy, nor at many Pacific islands, or even at Monte Cassino where the bombing just made things worse for the attackers. The destroyers were able to provide close in well directed artillery against specific targets which is why they were effective.

@@Moggy471 US bombers couldn't ID the beaches so delayed their bomb release or didn't drop at all in the case of Omaha.

@@Moggy471 The Navy only had 30 minutes to engage the defences before the troops hit the beach as the landings were that soon after full daybreak. The rocket firing landing craft opened up from too far out and the rockets landed short. I think the major issue was the US forces in that sector were too welded to following the operational plans and timings to the letter and failed to take into account that the weather could screw things up.

Son Tung - I've looked, too. Can't find which one. Both were at Omaha Beach, and he was probably aboard one or the other. Edit: The Montcalm was the French Admiral's flagship. So it was likely he was aboard her.

@@Mike12522 If that was a French ship, wouldn't it have been further up the line at any one of Gold, Juno and Sword beaches?

Yep gert fröbe

@@mohammedashian8094 That’s cool. Thanks for answering! 👍

@@blockmasterscott no wonder he’s hellbent on killing him in that movie 🤣

@@mohammedashian8094 I had to think for a moment, then I started laughing. Good one! 🤣🤣🤣

noun: burro; plural noun: burros a small donkey used as a pack animal. Origin early 19th century: from Spanish. This looks more like a mule.

Maria Ferreira - It's a horse. Not a burro, or pony. A horse.

@@Mike12522 Probably a horse. Possibly a mule.

@@Mdebacle - Sorry. I don't wish to be rude. But if you can't tell the large differences between a horse and a donkey, I feel sorry for you.

@@Mike12522 A mule is half-horse and half-donkey. It gets more traits from the horse.

That was at least half of the point of the movie, that almost everyone involved was stuck in the middle of it, no matter which side they were on. Winning was one thing but merely surviving it was the main objective for most.

It’s pronounced YET! Gota put your throat into it.
