This week hundreds of reenactors jumped from the sky to honor their bravery and sacrifice. CBS News correspondent Charlie D'Agata made that same jump over Normandy and tells his story.

"They shall not grow old, nor time diminish the valor of their deeds." RIP all combatants.
Rest in eternal peace. Thank you is not enough. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🙏🙏😥
The people who made so much sacrifices to shape the world to be a better place. Thank you!
The people who fought so we wouldn’t be speaking German just to end up in a country where the common language is now Spanish.
WWII the last legal war declared by Congress. Im not sure about the Korean war?
The people who fought so hard to preserve "freedom" would say we fought the wrong enemy if they saw what is going on today
@@SG_DesertFoxX97 the united states has no common language there is no official language while English is thought to be it is not unfortunately. Due to the weak government and weaker borders a flood of illegal immigrants from south America and Mexico have rushed in. In previous years a low number of immagrants were let in each year. And those immigrants had to take the citizenship test and learn english but now any cartel member can just come in
Excellent footage, Charlie D'Agata, you are helping all of us "across the pond" to experience what all of the D-Day participants went through!
Truly the Greatest Generation.
for sure. they were incredible.
My Dad was 18. 82nd Air Bourne. A true American HERO. HED BE SO SAD TO SEE HIS COUNTRY HE LOVED, AND PUT HIS LIFE ON THE LINE FOR IN THE MESS ITS IN TODAY.
R.I.P DAD
Charlie is the best guy for this story. He is always so sincere. Thank you Charlie.
Though most of the paratroopers missed their intended drop zones on D-day it had an unexpected effect of completely confusing the Germans who had no idea where they were all coming from and diverted resources everywhere
Yes, and let us remember those brave pilots who flew the C-47 Dakotas despite the unbelievable flak they faced.
Yes, while a huge blunder of missing planned DZs, the random scattering made no sense for Germans to figure out location objectives.
What a great opportunity! This is great Television! Charlie D'Agata and his team delivered a great segment. Glad that your knees were up to the task!
Brave soldiers fought so we can enjoy freedom & democracy. It's our job to protect both, please remember that this November!
Please remember what in December
Because of them we have the freedoms we enjoy. Thank you veterans and all who gave their lives in the cause of liberty
The Russians beat the Germans in the east.
We never celebrate their efforts. Why?
Russians liberated Auschwitz-Birkenau. We never thank them. Why not?
MMMMMMMNO.
Who cares
@@grytestriped4840 You mean to say you dont care about all these "freedoms" we have from guys fighting their own brethren over 80 years ago? But but but muh freedoms!
What freedoms, Europe has no freedom at all especially Canada.
Charlie, thank you for being honest. I can’t think of anything more terrifying than jumping from an airplane, but then when you couple that with knowing you’re jumping right into the fire…that’s a completely different level of fear. I have so much respect for those veterans that made the ultimate sacrifice. Thank you. Thank you ALL.
My great grandfather was a paratrooper in WWII. He was with the 509th Parachute Infantry Regiment in North Africa and later the 456th Parachute Field Artillery Regiment assigned to the 505th Parachute Infantry Regiment in the 82nd Airborne in Sicily. He was then sent back to England to prepare for Operation Overlord when he was transferred to the 101st Airborne and jumped into Normandy, and later jumped into Holland. He also participated in the Battle of the Bulge and Western Germany. He had made 4 combat jumps during the war. He survived and passed away in 2006.

School isn't what taught me about D-day.....3 things did. Medal of Honor, The original call of duty and The swedish Band sabaton! I also would not have learned of operation husky if it wasn't for the old Call of duty games on PS2 which was another operation that featured C47 Douglas Skytrains/Dakotas. Amazing history. As a historian, if we didn't fight so hard as we did back then, who knows we could have been in the world of what the Man in the High castle is in the series.... Another thing to remember is for as dumb as my generation has become here at 24 years old, always being told by my family that I have an old soul of being 40, THIS IS THE LAST DECADE OF WWII VETS, SHED THEM LIGHT AND ENJOY YOUR TIME WITH THEM WHILE IT LASTS!!!. Its not everyday you get to meet a vet and ACTUALLY get them to talk about their past experiences.....
When the student is ready, the teacher appears.
The real history of WW2 from the US disgusting "robber barons" who funded Hitler and the attempt for a coup in 1934 against FDR which General Smedley Butler exposed in 1934 to the possible escape of Hitler, in a book written by a Submarine veteran Harry Cooper. So many lies persist to this day about our recent history. (See the drama documentary Grey-Wolf)
CONGRATS on getting your Dutch Jump Wings!! AATW!! Welcome to the brotherhood
There is a reason we refer to them as 'the Greatest Generation'!
May their service and sacrifice never be forgotten. Heroes all.
Goosebumps.
more like cringe. Vets be rolling in their grave if they saw what they really fought for.
Simply awesome!
Wars always change and the scale of the D-Day invasion will never be seen again. Sadly, the loss of life in a modern all-out war would be gigantic. The weapons we invented to bring an end to WWII are now too horrible to even imagine.
Is anyone else from British Para 1 and feels (No we didnt exist during WW2) sidelined?
Nice to see our current airborne guys taking part. In 'Nam we had few who actually jumped or took the training. Almost all was helicopter assault.
Thank You
No matter how they react the d-day sense. It will never gonna be like the real one back 80 years ago.
No sh*t Sherlock!!
its not supposed to be
Happy 80th Birthday D-Day
I had the opportunity to jump out of the DC 47 during my time with the 82nd Airborne Division. It was called fun jump or SGM jump and only on a Saturday. We used the National Forest Service's DC 47 plane
Respect et tendresse pour les vétérans 💙🤍❤️🇨🇵🇺🇸
At least they mentioned those D-Day airborne jumped with heavy equipment, at night, and under fire. It is interesting how those who jumped on D-Day did face painting like Native Americans (or Indians as back in those days) with intent to scare the Germans that they are now facing Cheyenne Braves and other fierce warriors from various tribes. It was written Airborne had no problem getting soldiers to sign up for parachute battalions. One there is an increase in pay, two the slogan was "all our men are tough and we accept only those who are tough." So a lot of young guys say, "yeah! I wanna be tough!" But I think the parachute jump was the easy part. It is what these guys had to do once on the ground. For many way off intended DZ, lost equipment during canopy shock, and no modern technology such as NVG and GPS.
Yes yes yes thanks for those who were there and for those who raised the bar , for us who followed in the true footsteps of GIANTS . Your COUNTRY thanks you for being there an doing a great job in the service of YOUR COUNTRY
And No one was Shooting at him...
Charlie D, you rock!!!
And Dutch WINGS?!
More like Dutch cheese 😂
God bless those hero’s❤🙏🏾
my husband's uncle parachuted into Normandy on D-Day.
My grandfather was not ANTIFA!
“Your task will not be an easy one. Your enemy is well trained, well equipped and battle-hardened. He will fight savagely...... I have full confidence in your courage, devotion to duty and skill in battle. We will accept nothing less than full Victory! Good Luck! And let us all beseech the blessing of Almighty God upon this great and noble undertaking.” - General Dwight D. Eisenhower
Nothing but utmost respect for all the sacrifice made by all those brave souls who fought well and gave up their lives for something greater than themselves.
Well done Charlie .. Great effort!
Remember keep your feet and knees together. In the day the horizon is constant at night the horizon does play tricks on you and landing becomes more of challenge
KEEP YOUR HELMET ON!
Twelve Nations, not three and 156,000 Servicemen.
hello sorry but they never told you about a PLF on that course in Holland sir, ??????????????????????????
Українці пам'ятають. Українці вдячні.
if you dont like this immediately..!
I am crying USA USA USA and there Allies Thank You for your service.
"We fought against the wrong enemy!". General George Patton
AIRBORNE Daddy Gonna take a little trip!
STAND-UP,
HOOK-UP...Shuffle to tha Door...
Jump right out and count to 4.
Almost all parachutes have holes??!
for steering. In WWII they didnt but more modern chutes have them with toggles to give a small bit of control. No one is crazy enough to jump 80 year old silk.
Yes you need restricted airflow through the canopy to allow proper expansion, if not a gust would collapse the canopy pretty quickly
Good man Charlie
I felt those Ahhhs.
T - 10 parachute
Fought the wrong enemy
EXCUSE ME WHILE I KISS THE SKY......
It’s a shame what we allowed this country to turn into. Their sacrifice was ultimately for a country that today, is unrecognizable to the America that they fought for. What a disgrace.
And the French or did you forget about them? Also, you had free Polish forces there too.
No sure why idiots need to do this every year. Making sure your people have heath insurance is way more important
Less we forget 🫡
When can their glory fade?
We’re dropping into France….
Think about that.
The floor is lava.
The real ones were done at night
The americans not having quick release parachutes
Lost many in the flooded
Fields!
brits no reserve chute
There is, just the British jump from a lower altitude than the US. They wanna get them on the ground quick.
Normandy France jumps germans Canada ombaho beach honors d-day's heroes 80 th anniversary amazing veterans troopers killer 🇺🇲🇨🇵🔵⚪🔴🪖🪖🪖🪖
These people don't care cept for ratings :

Joli saut ! ;)
The US needs a Nuremberg Nuremberg Type Trial !
Crazy boomers
If it wasn't for our Soviet allies in WW2 ...we would all be speaking German today
Not quite, but Berlin would have still been radioactive instead.
If it wasn't for our Soviet allies, we wouldn't have all the wars there after.
Guess again pal.
I would much rather be speaking German and enjoying a timeline that didnt involve these internationalist warmongers.
Democrat BS
Not for us wouldn’t be a Soviet Union
I see joe biden no really look
Goosebumps coz history repeats itself. With the global tension, we just have to prepare.
