I was there in 1964 and the French took excellent care of the graves. I never saw 1 weed in the cemetery. Thank you French people. I really enjoyed the Country and the people and the food.

The elites they fought and died to protect have gone on to destroy these soldier's homelands and their children's birthright.

The largest military operation in history? 0:15 By what measure?

On 6 June 6 1944, 160, 000 allied troops landed on the French coast. There have been at least 7 battles in history where there were a larger number of casualties during battles.
