Normandy Honors Memories of D-Day Landings
By FREDERIC VEILLE
Associated Press Writer
ASNELLES-SUR-MER, France --
American and British veterans marked the 62nd anniversary of the D-Day
landings Tuesday with ceremonies and talks to schoolchildren about the
invasion that changed the course of World War II.
Hundreds of relatives and others joined at least two dozen veterans to
remember the June 6, 1944, invasion on Normandy's beaches that helped
free France -- and much of Europe -- from Nazi Germany's grip.
