[QUOTE="frogs9497, post: 2727181, member: 3019"] We had the opportunity to visit Normandy 2 years ago. It was overwhelming yet so peaceful. It is impossible to tour the area without a lump in your throat. On a personal note, my grandfather received the Croix de Guerre during WWII and displayed it proudly in his home office until he passed in 2009. He had so many fascinating stories about not only fighting German forces, but also the Italians. He brought home German and Italian service pistols that he personally extracted. I’m saddened that the Greatest Generation is disappearing so quickly, and obviously by those who gave all 75 years ago. [/QUOTE]
