- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5A wonderful tribute to WWII veterans involved with D-Day. A short but moving collection of mini-biographies of survivors who returned to Normandy over half a century later. Each section includes an earlier war-time photo and a picture from the return trip. The 35 men in the book are grouped with others from the same branches or units they served in. For history and/or military fans of all ages.Net Galley Feedback
