This is a picture of the first paratrooper to land on this spot during WWII. Allison on a ride in St. Mere Eglise. Don't ask how many times she rode it!!
The guys posing with their new British reenactor friends and their Jeeps. They were in the campsite right behind us. Luckily they were night owls too!!
Derek about to preform of the troops re-enlistment oaths at Utah Beach. The older gentlemen is a paratrooper from WWII who just happened to be there, so they asked him to be present for the ceremony.
Derek administering the re-enlistment oath. We were quite the tourist attraction as you can imagine. The British reenactor friends came down with us to watch and let some of the guys have a ride in their Jeeps.
