Normandy American Cemetery

On June 6, 2009 we honored the 65th Anniversary of D-day. In March 2009 I toured Europe on The Beyond Band of Brothers tour. We followed the path of the 101st Airborne during WWII. Visiting the American Cemetery is emotional. You will see 9,387 white Lasa Marble crosses perfectly aligned against an Emerald Green grass. The 9,387 graves include the men and women that gave their lives for our freedom. They include four women, three Medal of Honor recipients and 307 unknown markers. This cemetery is one of fourteen permanent American World War II cemeteries on foreign soil.
