Reality check

It would be difficult for anyone (without a heart of stone) not to be emotionally affected by a tour through the D-Day landing beaches area, and the confrontation with the reality of what war must be like. The liberation of France from the Nazi occupation is obviously still an important milestone in the minds of the locals, as well as the hoards of overseas visitors.

Now I know that some of you may think that I have no more emotion than a stone, but it is all lies I tell you.
