During World War II, George Stevens, the famed film editor who is known for such films as "Giant" and "The Greatest Story Ever Told," and many, many, others, was a Lieutenant Colonel in charge of film coverage of American troops in battle.

Because the Technicolor Process was too complicated and the cameras too cumbersome at that time, all news films of the war were in black and white. Kodak, however had a color process made for home moving pictures that had the advantages of being simple and of high quality. There was a major disadvantage however; this process yielded a single copy and no negative. For his own record, George Stevens used this color process, in conjunction with the official black and white newsreels, to photograph the period from D-Day to the end of the war.
