Sean McCartney and I have been trying to meet up during D-Day for about a week now, but have been frustrated by flaky wifi on his end, flaky wifi on my end, and other vagaries of fate. Yesterday, at the cemetery, we literally almost walked right past each other. Thankfully, he recoginized me and we had a few minutes together if not the pint(s) we had planned. To cap it off, we got to spend a little time with a French para -- who also had been until recently a commander in the Legion Etrangere. It was good to meet up, and great getting to meet him and his family, even if briefly. LW This trip and other embeds sponsored by MilitaryLuggage.Com and B.N. Shape Clothing. Normandy coverage also made possible by Enterprise Rent A Car Caen Railway Office. My thanks to them and to everyone who has contributed to make this and other trips possible. A variety of advertising sponsorships are available, and you can contribute to this trip and other embeds at GoFundMe.
