[edit]DescriptionObama Speaks at D-Day 70th 140606-A-UG394-001.jpg |
English: President Barack Obama speaks to more than 10,000 attendees at the Normandy American Cemetery and Memorial here June 6, commemorating the memory of the fallen Soldiers who gave their lives 70 years ago fighting to liberate northwestern Europe. During the ceremony approximately 400 WWII veterans sat behind the Presidents and faced the crowd while listening to the speeches, almost all reacting with standing applause and emotion as they sat only miles from where they fought for their lives. The event was one of several commemorations of the 70th Anniversary of D-Day operations conducted by the Allies during WWII, June 6, 1944. Task Force Normandy, led by the 173rd Airborne Brigade out of Vicenza, Italy, has organized 650 personnel from twenty U.S. units and six nations, at the invitation of the French government, to participate in the events happening across the region of Normandy.
