Maj. Gen. Greg Brady, Commanding General of the 10th Army Air and Missile Defense Command, had the honor of speaking in front of American Soldiers, a first-wave D-Day veteran, and descendants of French citizens who aided American paratroopers on D-Day at the Eglise Notre Dame in Hemevez, France on the 78th anniversary of the invasion.
After the ceremony, the granddaughter and great-granddaughter of Madame Brisset invited Maj. Gen. Brady to see their family home and the barn where their family bravely helped to hide three paratroopers from enemy patrols on June 6, 1944.
