Trivia

Much of the American Campaign was influenced by "Band of Brothers".

The British attack on the Pegasus Bridge was depicted in the film "The Longest Day" in a very similar manner.

The raid on the Eder Dam mentions the Bomber attack in 1943. This was depicted in the film "The Dambusters". The game nicely recreated the dam.
