Normandy American Cemetery & Memorial


The American Cemetery was even more humbling than the beaches themselves. I have never felt more proud to be an American. The overwhelming feeling I had in the cemetery was thankful and grateful to the men buried there. I looked at the 9,387 headstones and imagined each one of them as a soldier standing on the greave ready to give his life. It was the most humbling experience.
