Thanks for that link Jordan as it got me searching on there for stuff relating to my grandfather's regiment during the war, and found these nice little clips

http://www.britishpathe.com/record.php?id=60627 bren carriers in france

http://www.britishpathe.com/record.php?id=12361 salerno landings

http://www.britishpathe.com/record.php?id=49015 Crossing the volturno

http://www.britishpathe.com/record.php?id=60623 - near the end machine gun carriers firing on a position
