Today is the 80th anniversary of D-Day, and this year’s event is especially poignant: It could be the last major commemoration that involves WWII veterans. People who were 20 years old when Allied soldiers stormed the beaches of Normandy France, on June 6th, 1944, are now 100.
Given the gravitas of this year’s anniversary, organizers are giving it a “last hurrah” feel, holding concerts, parachute drops, ceremonies, and parades in what will be the biggest D-Day commemoration in history. Fewer than 200 WWII vets have traveled to France, supported by aides, to take it all in one final time.

President Biden is one of roughly 25 world leaders who will be in Normandy to mark the occasion.
