Here is why we had to storm Normandy.
This is actual footage of the French Marines drilling for their planned invasion of Normandy in April of 1944.
Based on the results they decided to call America for help.

1. Wrong forum.
2. France didn't storm Normandy. The US, UK and Canada did, with little to no communication with the French.
3. If I had to guess, those are UK soldiers.
4. Mildly humerous.

Hmm, BF2 chatter seemed general enough.  Description says "Anything else!"

> 2. France didn't storm Normandy.

Exactly the point.  The joke is they "planned" and then let us do it instead.

The forum should be 'Not BF2s, Not BF2'

Amusing but your contextualising of the video is bizarre. The Marines shown in the video are members of the Royal Marine Reserve (British) and the piece was shot during training in the south west of England.

Quite specifically, the Reservists decided to do this beach assault in full kit because they were annoyed by the regular marines who were giving them the usual grief that they were only part-time soldiers. Thus, the Reservists had something to prove. The results of the exercise are found in the video. 

How do I know this? Its my friend and his section filming it ...

Hello, first of all, these are not french marines...
Americans did storm normandy, they sent flyers at the wrong place, they bombed many towns with civilians...
While the "liberation" from Americans, 50'000 french womens have been raped by them ! Freedom doesnt give the right to be raped.
