For the 75th anniversary of the Normandy landings, a special tribute will be paid to the Veterans.
Huge photos bearing the effigy of many soldiers will be positioned between Merville Franceville and Saint Martin de Varreville on 50 miles of beach.
Each panel will be 3.30 feet high and 2 feet wide. On each panel there will be a black and white photo of a soldier with his name, nationality and regiment.
These pictures will be installed next spring.
