I was blessed to have never been in a firefight while in the Corps (although I did have the oxymoronic itch to be in one), and now having seen this documentary, happy to have not been in one (and simultaneously disappointed). History Channel put together a fantastic documentary looking at the little things that would have affected one’s chance of survival on D-Day.

Rather than focus on tactics, History looks into the myriad of small things that made a big difference that we do not normally think of.

Warning- Its a fascinating watch. NSFW based on gunshots and violence.
