As World War II veterans age into their centenarian years, a crucial message emerges: the importance of remembering and defending freedom. This year, only a small number attended memorials at places like the Normandy American Cemetery, reflecting on their sacrifices. 101-year-old Wally King symbolizes the dwindling presence of these heroes, reminding the younger generations of their debt of freedom as the community expresses gratitude with heartfelt applause and calls of 'Merci!'.
Wally King, now 101, reflects on the sacrifices made during WWII, emphasizing that freedom must not only be remembered but actively defended by future generations.
The Normandy American Cemetery at Omaha Beach serves as a somber reminder of the price of freedom, where fewer than two dozen veterans could attend ceremonies this year.
