The Allied invasion as you've never seen it before: Stunning colorized photographs show battle-torn France in the aftermath of D-Day

We will never stop being thankful of our allies, Britain, US, Canada, ... Each year, we still commemorate their sacrifices for France.

What a beautiful job that youngster has done! A small but wonderful glimpse into what can be accomplished when youth isn't wasted, fictitiously glorifying itself while burying itself on Twitter and Facebook. Well done, young Man!

This is a tremendous project that's been superbly carried out. Congratulations young man in making one of the ugliest times in our modern history very real. These images will now go a very long way in making this era a visual deterrent to never allow this to happen again.

Bless him my Dad served from 1939 to 1945 as a Royal Marine some of this brilliant film is for him.

Always very sobering to see such photos. Glad you shared these, DM.

Dear Jared, thank you for sharing your amazing work.

Fantastic job! Has to be some of the best colorization I have ever seen. Well done!

Powerful photos...

I often wonder if these heroes would do it all over again if they could come back and see todays Europe that they fought so bravely for and offered their live for.

Some of these photos look like they were taken yesterday.

Seeing these pictures in colour, these could be men in our own time... amazing

I just love the DM's captions on any military photos.

I'm a Brit who lived in the USA and am married to an American...we both have our own strengths and weaknesses..they compliment each other well...kick ass vs steady..gung-ho vs careful..but all must have been brave and fought hard and long when there were times they must have known they would die...it's a shame that all these years later those of us not even born want to spout about who did what instead of just appreciating we worked well together...just like me and my hubby!!!

Wonderful photos. Back in a time when we had real men.

Excellent photos. Not everyone likes them, but colorized photos, when done well, help bring the subject matter into the present. Great work, Jared.

Wow, those are the most natural and convincing colourised photos I've ever seen. They normally look a bit strange, but these could pass for originals.

That photograph of E company is phenomenal.

The young man who put this history into color did a yeoman's job. They're absolutely magnificent. They will give the younger generations something to relate to when viewing these. But somehow, the monochrome reveals the raw and real emotions of this period in time.

And to think, they died to see the likes of Kim K being celebrated and made rich for absolutely nothing, to see their countries destroyed by barbarians with a spineless government letting them do it, they would be horrified if they could see what they died defending!
