| Re: Strawberry bitch haunted??? Some back story: I remember when our CO told us about this opportunity to go 12 months before, said any one that’s wants to go will get a free once in a life time trip, and a chance to pay tribute to the men that died and lived to free the European continent of Nazism. we where serving with the US army 1/87th Inf. 25th infantry division, and we took leave so we could go to the 50th anniversary, it was part vacation part detail, our airfare was free and so was our room and board we stayed at a small Inn in Normandy that was around during the invasion… we where treated like the liberators, free food and drinks, after the celebration and memorial we took tours around the historical WWII battle sites.
We came across a bunch of old worn out Germans who where showing folks where their machine gun nest was real interesting to here there side of the battle. |
