I'm currently watching Tour of Duty on the military channel and this episode is about the 82nd airborne in normandy! This is so cool! I've been to all these places and the veteran talking right now, I've met him! I've been to the church, walked on the bridge...wow this is cool.  |

In 1999 Dr. Steven Ambros took 100 members of the 101ABN and their loved ones on a 30 battlefield tour. He had opened it up to others at $10,000 per. I really wished that I had both the health and the money.
One of the children wrote that he cried as his dad pointed to a depression in the ground overlooking Foy and said that is where my best friend died.
