A British D-Day veteran shares some of his stories and experiences with U.S. Army paratroopers, Normandy American Cemetery, May 31, 2012. Paratroopers from the Allied nations gather in Normandy each year as a remembrance to the military service members who fought in the effort to liberate Nazi-occupied Europe during World War II on June 6, 1944. The commemoration includes ceremonies for the over 9,000 service members who gave their lives during the invasion and an airborne operation, thus allowing the countries involved to pay homage to those who had fallen 68 years ago.
