This 1944 Castle Films silent newsreel shows action highlights from WWII, including the invasion of France by Allied forces on D-Day. Tens of thousands of Nazi prisoners are taken during the invasion, and General Eisenhower appears at the Arc de Triumphe as Allied troops enter Paris. At the 1:30 mark, U.S. troops are seen invading German soil and gun camera footage at the 1:45 mark shows strafing of enemy trains, air bases and so on. The capture of Aachen is also shown at the 2 minute mark. At the 3 minute mark Brussels is seen being liberated, and Antwerp falls. At 3:46, a truly iconic shot, a Nazi flag is seen being run over by a tank and then burned. At 4:00, the Canadians are seen landing in Holland as part of the ill-fated Market Garden operation. At 5 minutes, Soviet forces are seen pushing the Germans back along a thousand-mile front. At 5:42, German newsreel footage is shown of Wehrmacht forces destroying rail lines and supply dumps in their hasty retreat. 60,000 German prisoners march through Moscow at the 6:00 mark, most of them never to be seen again. At 6:40, the emphasis shifts to the Pacific where Marines are engaged in tough island fighting on Saipan. Japanese are seen jumping to their deaths rather than be captured. At the 7:20 mark, MacArthur is seen triumphantly returning to the Philippines. The V-1 buzz bomb is seen at the 8 minute mark, causing chaos in Britain. The film ends with the re-election of President Roosevelt over challenger Dewey, for his fourth term in office.
