Bloody Victory and Bloody Normandy
 

On November 8 at 8 p.m. ET/PT, the broadcast premiere of Bloody Normandy, tells the story of one of the greatest military campaigns in history through the eyes of the men who were there. In one chapter, Canadian veteran Bill Bettridge returns to the village of Mouen for the first time in over 60 years to pay tribute to seven men from his unit who were murdered in cold blood by the Nazi SS in July 1944.

On Thursday, November 8 at 9 p.m. ET/PT, the broadcast premiere of Bloody Victory revisits the Canadian Army after the successful battle of Normandy. At this time, the soldiers were given a new mission: advance up the French, Belgian and Dutch coasts that are defended by Nazi troops, and secure strategic ports vital to supplying the allied war machine. Now, sixty-five years later, Canadian veterans return to the battlefields where they fought and won the battle for Northwest Europe.
