My sister (Baldwin77) and BIL visited Normandy last week — a day trip from a cruise ship. Hugely impactful.
We took a river cruise with a day trip to Normandy. It was a very emotional and educational experience experience. i highly recommend it.
Our guide made a very interesting comment. Someone asked if there are many relatives who visit the cemetery and she said that so many of the soldiers were so young that they only had immediate family. They never had children, grandchildren or great grandchildren.
