U.S. Army paratroopers from various airborne units ride bumper cars at a carnival during a commemoration of the 68th anniversary of the D-Day invasion, Saint Mère Èglise, France, June 2, 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, June 6, 1944. The commemoration, which includes ceremonies for the over 9,000 service members who gave their lives during the invasion and airborne operations, allows the countries involved to pay homage to those who fell 68 years ago.
