US military personnel speak with US WWII veteran Marvin Gilmore, who served with the 458th Battery "A" Anti-Aircraft Artillery Batallion, in a cafe near Utah beach, in Saint-Marie-du-Mont, northwestern France, on June 4, 2024, as part of the "D-Day" commemorations marking the 80th anniversary of the World War II Allied landings in Normandy. The D-Day ceremonies on June 6 this year mark the 80th anniversary since the launch of 'Operation Overlord', a vast military operation by Allied forces in Normandy, which turned the tide of World War II, eventually leading to the liberation of occupied France and the end of the war against Nazi Germany.
