"D-Day 80th Anniversary: Veterans and World Leaders Honor Historic Normandy Invasion"

Louise Hamel's diary entry from June 6, 1944, captures the historic moment of the D-Day landings in Normandy, France. Her family later donated their farmland to create the Normandy American Cemetery, honoring the soldiers who sacrificed their lives. As the 80th anniversary of D-Day approaches, her granddaughter Stéphanie Le Bris, an interpretative guide at the cemetery, continues to honor the memory of the fallen heroes.
