For D-Day/Normandy invasion check out episode2 'Day of Days'
For the push into Germany look at episodes:
8 'The Last Patrol'
9 'Why We Fight'
10 '10-Points'
BTW, not WW2 related but if you have not seen 'Generation Kill' I highly recommend it. Based on a first hand account (by "Reporter") of a Marine Recon unit in the run up to and early aftermath of the second Iraq war, only seven episodes, it's tight and well made.Very good stuff for the most part.
