GWDebate with sponsorship from the French Embassy Center of Excellence invites you to view Omaha Beach: Honor and Sacrifice as part of GWU’s Veterans History Writing Project.
Last summer, the GWU Debate & Literary Society had the privilege of accompanying the World War II veterans of the 29th Infantry Division to Normandy for the commemoration of the 70th anniversary of D-Day. The trip was documented by the World War II Foundation and, with the support of the French Embassy to the United States, has been turned into a documentary. In addition, the GW students and student-veterans who accompanied the returning veterans have created their own student-documentary on their experience, which will be premiered at GWU along with the World War II Foundation’s documentary.
Here’s the who, what, when and where:
