I was in Normandy, France this past August and was able to visit Utah, Omaha, Pointe du Hoc and Juno Beaches. Amazing thing to see these beaches and try to imagine what went on that day many years ago. Also visited the American military cemetery at Omaha beach, (the one used in Saving Private Ryan) Just under 10,000 graves. It leaves you speechless!
Also got to the Canadian cemetery at Juno Beach and on all the gravestones there have the age of the individual on them. All these young guys in there early twenties!!
Amazing generation to say the least!!
God Bless them all and for all the veterans past, present and future!
