Found this on the Film Preservationist subreddit.  Some extremely high-quality film that shows Canadian troops on Juno Beach, D-Day.  Some cool bits to find here.

One of the comments in the video provides a bit of additional context (take it with a grain of salt):

QuoteI'm a pretty well versed historian on WWII and I have never seen any of that film. Its from all over the place, UK beaches, a bit of the US and then back in England. Very interesting.
