80 years since the landing how does Normandy maintain D Day

This episode of News witnesses is part of the commemorations of the 80th anniversary of the landing. On this occasion, we speak with Valentin Hugues, journalist in the France department of RFI. He devoted two major reports and several other illustrations to the 80th anniversary of D-Day, June 6, 1944. Beyond the duty of remembrance, has this historical heritage not become a tourist attraction like any other? And what do the inhabitants of the region, who live surrounded by all these places of memory on a daily basis, think?

In Normandy, on the occasion of the commemorations of the 80th anniversary of the Allied landings, volunteers meet every weekend in Merville.
