Conceptual Improvements/advancements of edit over Original

This is an attempt to create the feel of what it must have been like to be an Allied soldier during the Normandy Landings on June 6th 1944.

This FanEdit is strictly a POV from the Allied perspective and takes place during the course of one day. I have tried to create a documentary feel to the action and so all German POVs have been cut (including interior machine gun nests and German establishing shots). This was done to show only what an allied soldier might have seen during the conflict.

I have removed all music but for the opening and end credits.

The difference between the hand held footage of Saving Private Ryan with the more static and conservative approach of The Longest Day is evident but I hope I have inter-cut the two with as much seamlessness as possible but I will let you be the judge of that.
