i'm even surprised to see that in one of the pics, the boulanger patissieries still exist till today
I noticed that too! How cool is that?!
I showed peeps at work this thread today, all of us are just fascinated. This by far has been your best collected photo threads to date! Bravo! Thanks very much for posting these.
I forgot to mention, it's also really cool to see in some of the concrete and brick buildings the hints of where the repairs were made. Like healed scars of the pasts wounds. Very cool.
but it's quite sad to see the structures could be remade , in spite of the people who died in combat
The US military spent a lot of money in France but De Gaulle said “even with all your money we despise you. Get the Fu*k out of here!
In the nineties, Edith Cresson the first woman prime minister of France answered a question here on the news about how the French felt about Americans and she said we still despise most of you.
She said when you swear you say excuse my French. You call a kiss with the tongue a French kiss. you call oral sex French love.
Many Americans say we’re all a bunch of fags and queers because we don’t persecute our homosexuals.
With common sense France lets them get together with each other so they won't betray themselves and breed more.
They also don’t turn our women into stinking bitches either by spreading yeast and bacteria from their rectums to their vagina‘s which ruins their natural scent.
Common sense lets the French know that we live on through our children and that it‘s the act of self betrayal that turns people into self betraying queers and bitches who breed more.
Most anal lusting queers are not homosexuals and are in fact married to a stupid bitch that would have them. Sexual preference has nothing to do with being queer, thinking all women are bitches who deserve being sodomized does.
French homosexuals don’t breed more, or sodomize their women and stupid Americans say because of that that we're all a bunch of homosexuals fags and queers.
There are a lot of homosexuals in France but the truth of the matter is that there are very few French homosexuals because we let ours die out naturally by not manipulating them into betraying themselves by breeding more.
Most of the homosexuals here in France are either from America, England or Germany. We let ours die out naturally and you all ship yours that can afford it over in droves where they spend their money. LOL! Viva La France!

And, of course, equally for 18 - a pair of hate-filled half wits
PARABENS!!
I specifically remember the German pillboxes on the Normandy beaches, and I'm pleased to see they are still there.
Thank you for this walk through memories, and giving me a chance to see the beautiful area again.
Needless to say,I thoroughly enjoyed seeing these pictures- it was well presented and a great view of what was/is part of history. Bravo!!!

Thank you!
ARE YOU ALL AWARE that Col Rudder and his XO WERE AWARE the 155 mm guns were wooden pilings on JUNE 4, 1944? The XO had reservations about attacking the cliff to capture telephone poles and WAS RELIEVED of his command.
Don't be put off by the desturbed quotes of 17 and 18. Mad as a box of badgers!
"As horrific as WWII was, there was much respect for civilians and non-military structures."
Huh?! "respect for civilians" - the Holocaust, flattening entire cities with carpet bombing, mass murders left and right, not exactly my idea of "respecting civilians and non-military structures". The Second World War is one of the most brutal and barbarian conflicts in human history - actually, it's THE most brutal and barbarian conflict of all times.
