The statue by the altar is the funerary statue of Henri-Robert Aux-Épaules, who was the lord of the area when he died in 1607. Apparently the statue was part of his funerary monument, which was partially destroyed during the French Revolution, and then placed in the church during the 19th century.

@The History Underground Do you guys have a video on the dday company A 505th parachute infantry regiment 82nd airborne division and their stand at la fière also do you know about a photo with three paratroopers and a sign with the letters censored on it, it also has some kind of building on the left side and there are some trees on the right side of the photo I’m interested in where this photo was taken I found it in a magazine called wwii history , the magazine is from October 2021 the front cover on the magazine shows a paratrooper with a Thompson m1a1 over his shoulder climbing into the plane he was getting into

[@TBNTX]

Done and done!

[@christinefennell4928]

I have just found these videos. We used to visit Normandy regularly and these videos bring back fond memories. They are very informative and interesting, but please remember where you are and remove your cap/hat when entering a church!

[@normahird9059]

JD... Again you have taken your viewers on another realistic adventure of the Normandy invasion. PBS television has done many series on this invasion. Yours is so much more realistic. For that I thank you. The heroism of the soldiers that freed the world of Nazi tyranny has been preserved by your vlogs. Again thank you.

[@TheHistoryUnderground]

Appreciate that!

[@bilplaymo6121]

in 2004 my alone visit of Normandy, in Sainte Marie Dumont, there was a lot of people for official ceremony ( it was 60th birthday ) and what a surprise, two British journalist were with 2 germans veterans, one of them was the german parachutist hidden in the church tower to survey allied advance on this morning of 6th june.......my friend and me were really impressioned by this veteran, and we have trouble the interview due to our big interest ! good souvenir....remember.....and thanks fo sharing : )

[@diannebass2744]

This is another incredible episode. For me to see in detail of the war damaged buildings and knowing that 4 of my great-uncles fought here created a very emotional stirring in my soul. With the grace of God all 4 brothers returned home after the war.

Thank you.

[@bradmiller3367]

When you were at the Gettysburg museum looking at D-Day artifacts, I shared in your awe of history-in-your-hands. Already having watched the previous series of your D-Day sites trip, I sit in amazement at the the places this trip has brought you to,and can only imagine the deep awe you felt at standing in those places and the keen sense of History! I really need to get over there, not only for WWII history but for the thousands of years of history that yet lives on there…

[@roygarciaazborn64]

Great video. My late uncle Joe fought in Europe during WW2 as a tank driver. He saw the destruction and chaos that war causes so he only saw the "ugliness man can cause". Sadly he never had a chance to return to Normandy for he passed away before he could go. But I'm sure he would be happy knowing that the ugliness of war he saw had long since passed and the peace and beauty had returned.

[@tnarggrant9711]

I love it when you bump your head. You literally do it in all your best videos.

[@jetsons101]

JD, Erik and Charles, again you amaze. You three really put the "forget' into "Never Forget." Keeping the story alive for this latest generation is so important so they learn that freedom isn't free. It was fought for and needs constant defending or it will be lost. Going to the top of the church tower was really over the top.... Thanks to the three of you for your work.....

Hopefully people are sharing out these videos to help to keep it from being forgotten 🙂

[@stephen4763]

Wow - just wow. The church tour was - there are no words. All this history just comes alive. The last picture - of the First Mass in the church after D-Day showing all the soldiers kneeling and heads bowed - brought tears. So much destruction yet moments of peace and calm. The bullet holes in the confessional - were left. This is why history should never be destroyed or hidden or patched up. It teaches us to remember, to never let this happen again. Yet here in the US, our short history, because of what some don’t like, is removed, defaced or torn down. We never learn do we?

[@chriscollis9315]

Love this little town been there many times with my family, I just love Normandy the people are wonderful.My uncle was was a British paratrooper fighting at Ranville near Pegasus bridge on D Day.In August his best friend was killed by a German sniper at a town call Putot-en-Auge and is buried in the church yard with many of his fellow paratrooper's.🇬🇧🇺🇸🇨🇦🇨🇵

[@mjolnir9030]

I worked for a French company for 15+ years and had the opportunity to visit Normandy. As an American, when we think about historical structures like Thomas Jefferson's home and how it pales in comparison to those structures in Europe e.g., France. This particular church was built in 1679, 100 years before the founding of America. I'm just blown away by the history and the beautiful places that remain in Europe. I don't expect our structures to be standing through the centuries like those in Europe. It was such a privilege I had to visit the area and truly enjoying your video. Merci Beaucoup!

[@ep7503]

It is much more older. Church was built between XI and XV century. 1679 is probably a mark made by the mason who rebuilt the arch of the door.

Another great episode. To see the church still standing in great shape after almost 1000 years tells many stories of our "Modern Architecture". I'm not a church going person, but to see the soldiers going to mass after freedom had been restored is a moving picture. This whole series is amazing.

[@johnr7769]

Thank you for producing such a wonderful series of documentaries about the Normandy Campaign. I have read all the books and watched many videos for nearly 60 years about this subject. Yours is the most insightful and I appreciate the care and respect you pay to the places and memories of those who fought and died in that campaign. God bless you.

[@scott1395]

J D you have a natural talent for doing what you're doing! Your sense of amazement and wonder makes your videos so much better! I don't think I've seen any if your videos that I didn't like! My 97 year old dad is a ww2 vet and as a small child I used to watch THE WORLD AT WAR AND VICTORY AT SEA episodes! I always had an amazement and fascination with ww2! The manpower and logistics it took to build the factories for war materials and to get the material to the theater of fighting was unprecedented in it time and hasn't been seen since! I've read 100s of books on the topic and never pass up a chance to talk to a vet!! Thank you for your work, I know it's a labor of love!

[@TheHistoryUnderground]

Oh wow! Where did he serve?

[@scott1395]

@The History Underground he had a knee injury at 12 years old! The army discovered it in trying camp ad was gonna send him home! He told them the war wasn't over and he wanted to do his part! So they operated on his knee and he served in long Beach California at the Port of embarkation! He was a projectionist, he ran motion pictures for troops for propaganda and entertainment prior to embarking to the pacific!!

[@johnwhyte4931]

This is truly fantastic content, presented with the grace, dignity and respect it demands and deserves. Ironically, the more minutia you present in your recounted stories, highlighting the events and deeds of individuals, the more interesting it is, as it really reinforces the personal sacrifices and impact of tyranny, whether on soldiers or civilians. After all, they are just people like you and I, so we can relate as people, but are awestruck by their bravery and sacrifice. As you said, these stories are examples of average people like you and I, thrust into extraordinary circumstances and forced to do extraordinary things as a matter of survival. This is a fantastic series! Please keep them coming!

This was wonderful. Everyone needs to know about Normandy and the courage of the Allies as they fought against the Axis powers. We should remember that many if not most of the Germans were also wishing they weren't there. If only the German people spoke out against their despot before he claimed power, this would not have happened.
