What an excellent interview this one is. I recall on a episode of "Band of Brothers" Lt Harry Welsh was questioned by Lt Lewis Nixon why was he carry his parachute in his pak bag, Lt Harry Welsh's response was he was sending it back to the States to his fiancee so she can make her wedding dress out of it for her's and Harry's wedding when he gets back home. 😅😂

I was active duty in the 80s stationed in Germany. When we went to the Low Countries or Normandy, people still remembered the war and often we didn't pay for food or drink. One such time 4 off us were in Luxembourg. We ate, drank and played darts all night. Didn't pay a cent when we tried to pay. We tried to pay something but they wouldn't hear of it! Amazing experiences. Can't imagine how the vets from the war are treated!

@Bob Jones whatever France’s motivations were at the time the Americans certainly knew what they were fighting about or they wouldn’t have risked their lives and homes. The Americans needed France’s help to win against the British. France ( the world really) needed the Allies help to win against naziism. The United States with God’s help certainly was a huge part of that accomplishment. Geopolitics is always involved of course.

The eyes of the French people, in the old B&W film footage, showed joy and love for their liberation, there is a bond between France and America that goes back to our birth as a nation.

As JD mentions, war isn't just about the battles... it's also about the local folks affected, the Maquis, and others who refused to bow down to tyranny.

HozelRocket. Such as the British - without whose heroism ( and Commonwealth and others who were rescued from the beach at Dunkirk and those who escaped from Europe under their own steam ) the Battle of Britain would have been lost; and USA would have had nowhere from which to fight their own war following Germany declaring war upon USA. The courage and fortitude of British civilians during the bombings is rarely mentioned outside Britain. My family was bombed out twice: father, mother, two brothers and two sisters all lost. Shelters were, at first, not available and only London had the Underground Rail stations: Liverpool, Manchester, Hull, Coventry and many other towns had very little. Up to 1944 we school children still had to run for the school shelter - only 3 feet underground - during daytime alerts. Yesterday was our Remembrance Day. R.I.P all our dead - including our civilian heroes: and R.I.P. all the dead of all nations in all wars.

Incredible video. I went to Normandy in 98. My unit was in England for two weeks. WE ALL WENT while in England. What an honor to have been there. We were treated so kindly. People wanted to tell us about it all. My great uncle wounded on Omaha Beach, first wave. 2 years of training for this day. Ramp goes down boom shot in the knee over he went. Out of the war. Never fired his weapon. He hated that he would tell us. He felt ashamed. Mom's cousin killed on Omaha Beach on DDay. RIP Heros all.

Really enjoy the first hand accounts from civilians who witnessed and were caught up in the War.

I absolutely like stories along this line. What I admire how these French People adore the Americans that Liberated France. Normandy People are so respectful to Americans like yourselves that visit for stories on WW II. Thanks.
