Sword Beach

10 Nolan Thorne

We are all aware of the historical significance of this beach during WWII. It was a moving experience for my mother and me as we quietly reflected on the memorials, plaques, and information honoring the soldiers who landed on the shores of Northern France in 1944. It is important to be able to understand both French and English to fully appreciate the stories of these brave individuals. However, time has passed and now the beach serves as a peaceful place to relax and enjoy. The memories and gratitude will always remain, and our fallen heroes can now hear the sounds of freedom and happiness from their final resting place. A heartfelt thank you to all those involved in Operation Neptune and Operation Overlord.
