Students from Normandy, France visited Ft. Campbell Highschool on February 7, 2024 as part of a cultural exchange to see U.S. students and schools and shared commonalities. The French students are on a tour of the U.S. and Ft. Campbell to learn more about D-Day veterans and the liberation of Carentan from Nazi occupation 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.
