Fortunately for me, my father went through Normandy about a week after
D-Day. Never-the-less marching across France, Belgium, Germany etc.in WWII
changed his life forever. He came back with a bronze star and a purple
heart. France gave him, and many others, a medal of appreciation several
years ago. The Army had a nice ceremony at a nearby base. I couldn't be
more proud of what my father did back then.
