    Always remember the greatest generation and their sacrifice. So few are left...

    As a bright sun rose Monday over the wide band of sand at Omaha Beach, U.S. D-Day veteran Charles Shay expressed thoughts for his comrades who died here 78 years ago.

    “I have never forgotten them and I know that their spirits are here,” he told The Associated Press.

    The 98-year-old Penobscot Native American from Indian Island, Maine, took part in a sage-burning ceremony near the beach in Saint-Laurent-sur-Mer. Shay, who now lives in Normandy, was a 19-year-old U.S. Army medic when he landed on Omaha Beach on June 6, 1944.

    He said he was especially sad to see war in Europe once again, so many years later.
