A child walks to the site of a memorial ceremony honoring the crash landing of a Douglas C-47 Skytrain in Magneville, France, June 3, 2024. The Magneville Memorial honors the loss of 18 paratroopers, assigned to the 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment of the 101st Airborne Division, and four C-47 transport crew members that were shot down on June 6, 1944. Eighty years later, the bravery and heroism by all Allies and U.S. forces during World War II continue to resonate around the world as today’s military remains steadfast in its commitment to global peace and security.
