The Harrowing Story of an Elite Allied Sniper Unit | The Black Watch Snipers

This is the incredible true story of an elite Allied sniper unit during the Second World War. Black Watch Snipers documents the Canadian military experience during World War Two as seen through the eyes of the country's most storied regiment—the Black Watch.

Using eyewitness interviews from Black Watch veterans, this documentary covers events in the ten months following D-Day in June 1944, as seen through the eyes of five snipers who led the charge through Nazi occupied Europe. The snipers, who led their platoon to victory and survived to tell the tale, reveal the harrowing details of their march towards Germany, while dramatic reconstructions of the major battles bring their story to life.
