Our Veterans
George Chall, 96 years young, served with General Patton's 3rd Army through four WWII war campaigns including the Battle of the Bulge in the Ardennes. He spoke German so he treated German prisoners of war as well as treated wounded soldiers through the end of the war. Mr. Chall landed on Utah Beach Normandy six weeks after D-Day. On November 28, 2018, Mr. Chall was awarded the distinguished French Légion d'Honneur, the highest decoration in France.
Our Story
We did it!!!! WE escorted two magnificent WWII veterans and their companions back to Normandy, June 3-9. It was a life-changing experience for everyone. What did we do? EVERYTHING! We lived together in a home in Bayeux, we ate dinners together (all 13 of us), laughed a lot, cried sad tears and joyful ones too, walked proudly and humbly and received thousands of hugs and kisses from Europeans of all ages....all in the name of LIBERTY. Our "Liberateurs" returned to France as heroes and were treated like rock stars...because they are! As the students said many times, all veterans should be honored like this ..."let's do what we can to make that happen."
