EYEWITNESS TO WORLD WAR II
UNFORGETTABLE STORIES FROM WORLD WAR II GREATEST GENERATION
“We are determined that before the sun sets on this terrible struggle, our flag will be recognized throughout the world as a symbol of freedom on the one hand and of overwhelming force on the other.”
~ George Marshall
THE MEMORY LIVES ON
The American World War II Generation made significant sacrifices in Normandy, a pivotal battlefield during World War II. As America faces the loss of its last remaining national treasures, it is crucial to preserve its customs and achievements. Offering complimentary educational excursions to the younger generation is an effective way to honor the sacrifices and experiences of the World War II generation. Normandy has become a focal point for honoring those who sacrificed their lives in the most significant military conflict in history. The people of Normandy also endured significant losses in those battles. Each year, residents of Normandy come together to pay tribute and reflect on the brave soldiers and veterans who participated in commemorative events. Their unwavering commitment to never forget their memory will be remembered for generations to come. Offering tours at no charge to the Sons & Daughters of the Greatest Generations and school groups is highly significant and fulfills the final wishes of numerous World War II veterans.
