    Out of curiosity any idea how these Georgian troops knew that the Tommy's were coming the next day when they cut off the electricity and we're hiding out around the woodpile? And there was a lot of Eastern European in the German army stationed in Normandy. One of the most unusual of these European volunteers from the East was the ones that were of Oriental descent my father told me that they captured some and they initially thought that they were Japanese that had come and volunteered for the German army. This is another great video a very good history lesson from the point of view of the civilians who actually lived through the events. Well done 😁

      A German officer living in a farm pulled his men and equipement to Cherbourg aweek before d-day. He told the farmer the invasion was coming at Cherbourg. it's probably this idea that the Gergians had.

    Those were great stories. It’s so interesting to hear about those individual unplanned acts that make a difference in that historic operation. Capturing that German gun certainly saved American lives.

    How about do one about the Normandy bar? And the story of the dedication of the engineering monument down on the beach and a little girls that had their American flag dresses made out of parachute silk.
