That’s not restored audio...that’s a voice over by an actor to match. They used forensic lip readers and other techniques to figure out what was being said then tried to match the correct British accent based on regiment info.

The voice over narration by former soldiers is the restored audio.

Just from a technical standpoint, there is very little sound film from the second world war, much less the first. There was no audio "recorded" so nothing to "restore" - as it is, we're lucky to have any of it considering the technical challenges of filming at that time and on those battlefields.
