D-Day Veterans Bill Soule, Franklin Simon, Christy Fier and Marvin Gilmore
D-Day Veterans Bill Soule, Franklin Simon, Christy Fier and Marvin Gilmore at Le Roosevelt Bar - Utah Beach
USA Warrior Stories was in Normandy for the 80th Anniversary of D-Day. While at Utah Beach we heard that a group of D-Day Veterans were having lunch at the Le Roosevelt. We were honored to speak with Bill Soule, Franklin Simon, Christy Fier and other D-Day Veterans like Marvin Gilmore, one of the last surviving African-Americans who served during the Liberation of Europe. This group of WWII Veterans was brought to the 80th Anniversary of D-Day by The Rifle and organization started by Andrew Biggio.
