As you get shot, the edges of the screen turn crimson and close in around you the more you get hit. Because there's no health bar in the game, you'll need to watch the screen when you're getting hit.
This is an important technique to master-not only because it's useful, but also because screwing it up results in a grenade exploding in your hands. To prevent your grenades from being returned to sender, you can "cook" a grenade by pressing and holding R2, which lets the grenade get closer to detonating before you throw it. Call of Duty 3 also lets you scoop up grenades thrown by the enemy and toss them back. You can toss smoke grenades to create cover and frag grenades to clear large groups of Wehrmacht. Clicking the left analog stick brings up your binoculars-an unfortunate button-mapping choice because it's far too easy to accidentally push the stick down when you're scrambling for your life. You can also perform a melee attack by pressing the right analog stick or by rotating the controller 90 degrees. It's a subtle effect, but it works really well and it's not overdone. Here, you're vulnerable during the time it takes to raise your weapon and while you wait for the blurring effect that simulates your eyes focusing to clear up. For precision aiming, you'll want to press L1, which raises your gun to eye level and lets you use the weapon's sight. You can fire your weapon with R1, but this doesn't allow for much accuracy. The controls offer a lot of variety, yet they're still easy to learn.

Though the stories aren't particularly engaging, fighting for four different armies works because it gives you a sense of not only how much effort it took to wrestle control of France from the Germans, but also that it wasn't just the United States that lost men and women in World War II. Each country's campaign has a unique storyline that is supposed to get you emotionally involved with the characters, but the stories aren't very interesting there's a soldier with a strong distaste for the French, an overbearing sergeant, and a young radio operator who has been labeled a coward.
As was the case in the last game, you're placed in the role of several different soldiers and you'll participate in campaigns for America, Britain, Canada, and Poland. After landing successfully on the beaches of France, the allied focus was on getting the Germans out of France and liberating Paris, which was under Nazi control at the time.
