Maj. Gen. Brett Sylvia, Commanding General of the 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault) and Fort Campbell, speaks to high school students from Carentan, France at a farewell dinner hosted at the division headquarters at Fort Campbell, Ky., February 9, 2024. The French students visited Fort Campbell to learn more about the shared history of their town and the 101st Airborne Division that liberated Carentan during WWII. This year will mark the 80th anniversary of D-Day and the liberation of Carentan. This visit is an illustration of the deep and generational gratitude that has been forged between Carentan and the division that liberated their city in 1944. The city and the division have visited one another on multiple occasions with the division making an annual trip each year on the anniversary of D-Day.
