In advance of the D-Day Landings, paratroopers from the US 82nd Airborne Division are dropped behind enemy lines to capture strategic positions.

Falaise Trap
In August 1944, the Allies close in on remnants of the German Army in Normandy—about 100,000 soldiers, their weapons and tanks to create the Falaise Pocket. But as they squeeze, a small gap remains in the Allied line that promises escape. A small Canadian tank squadron must hold the line as the pressure builds.
Hell in Hoven

Baker and a platoon of American Buffalo Soldiers fight three miles into enemy territory to close in on a Nazi occupied castle in Italy, avoiding minefields, destroying observation posts and capturing machine gun nests.
