D-Day: Last Grand Anniversary for Living Veterans
80th Anniversary Commemoration to be Held in Normandy
Ceremony at Bayeux Cemetery on June 5, 2024
In what may be the final major D-Day anniversary with living veterans in attendance, a special ceremony will be held at Bayeux Cemetery in Bayeux, France, on June 5, 2024.
The ceremony will honor the sacrifices of those who fought and died in the D-Day landings, the pivotal Allied invasion of Nazi-occupied Europe during World War II.
This year's commemoration holds special significance as it is expected to be the last with a substantial number of surviving veterans able to participate. With time marching on and the number of living veterans dwindling, this anniversary serves as a poignant reminder of the valor and sacrifice of those who fought for freedom.
As we approach this historic occasion, let us pay tribute to the D-Day veterans, whose bravery and determination changed the course of history. Their legacy will forever inspire generations to come.
