It’s 07:00 AM, 6 June 1944, and you’re one of the 150,000 troops embarking on a mission that would define the twentieth century. Whether you know it or not, this day would almost certainly be the most demanding of your entire existence - when the horrors, complexities and triumphs of life would be laid bare and courage and heroism would come to the fore… What all of your senses were exposed to on D-Day, would stay with you forever… Since the desperate evacuation of Allied Forces from the northern French port of Dunkerque four years ago, plans of retaliation were made and slowly put in motion… From 1942 onwards, as the tide of the war was showing signs of turning, hundreds of thousands of allied soldiers, many from across the Atlantic, began to arrive in Britain to undertake training for a full scale land, air and seaborne invasion of Europe - the largest of its kind in the history of warfare. With the fate of the world hinged on this moment, nothing could be left to chance. Whatever your name

California. One of the most geographically diverse states in the U.S., it covers more than 150,000 square miles. The span of coastline along the west edge stretches more than 800 miles from top to bottom. Sandy beaches, towering mountains, tremendous valleys, and sprawling deserts, all give the Golden State a unique make up. One could enjoy a morning at the beach, hop in a car and find themselves thousands of feet above sea level, amongst the giant sequoias, with a night sky full of glimmering stars. Whether you find yourself in one of California's populous cities, or out in the middle of arid Death Valley, no two locations are exactly alike. Immerse yourself in the visions of California. Documentary Central is the home for compelling documentaries tackling subjects like history, climate change, wildlife, conspiracy and more.
