Flowers rest around the Magneville Memorial site during a ceremony in Magneville, France, June 3, 2024. The memorial was built in 1948 to honor the 22 service members lost in the crash landing of a C-47 near Magneville in 1944. 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. The sacrifices made by U.S. service members and our Allies during World War II serve as a reminder of the importance of solidarity in times of adversity.
