Tears and Thanks as French Relive D-Day

They were just remembering it, not actually reliving it? What a let-down.

We really meant to flatten Paris.

Beautiful city, Paris.

Ah, yes, It's definitely my favorite scene, too ! It must have been something for the bunker garrisons to see THAT fleet. I also liked the scene between the Luftwaffe Officer "Pips" Priller and his general in Paris.
