Color pre-Day and post D-Day Video. Color just makes things look real. There is a shot of a few 82nd Airborne guys in which you clearly see the All American Red Patch.

Lillyman (101st Airborne Div., 502nd PIR, 3rd Bn, I Co) and First Lieutenant James J.

I finally get to see a bit of the color of what my Dad's uniform/ gear was like.
Thanks.
