D day June 6 1944

My wife and I went to France in 2006 to visit my Daughter whom was studying in Marsellie.
we spent a few days at normandy, and I was struck by all the visitors at the American cemetary. on our way along we stopped at the german war dead cemetary, and it was stone silence, with only one visitor standing there when we got there. I saw he had a Cornhusker hat on! he apparently was also from nebraska, and was visiting there looking up the names of a relative that had been killed in action there.


I said to him that it is bad enough to be buried in a foreign country, but being buried in a country that hated you and your very existence in their country?

unbearable,,, young kids on both sides.
