A ceremony repeated every year on this day in France: sand of Omaha Beach brings forward from the brightness of the stone the names of the fallen, 82 years ago Today

Every single DDAY anniversary I think about this footage from Omaha beach and the soldier that goes down on the left hand side of the frame.
Who was he?
What unit was he in?
Did he survive?
What did he believe in?
Was he a Christian?
Where was he from?
What would he think of the world today?
If he didn’t survive I hope he didn’t suffer.
