In the footsteps of the 2nd Infantry "Indian Head" Division in the vicinity of Trevieres, Normandy.

Members of the 2nd Division started to land on Omaha Beach on June 7, 1944, and saw their baptism of fire in the city of Trevieres on June 9, 1944.

The 38th Infantry Regiment lost 96 men during this bloody battle.

It is always an honor to walk in the footsteps of our liberators.

VIDOUVILLE & HILL 183 ♦️

Today we are remembering the member of the 5th Infantry Division who saw intense and heavy fights in the vicinity of Vidouville, Normandy and on Hill 183.

It was the baptism of fire for the men of the "Red Diamond" Division and many of them paid the ultimate price. We should never forget them. 🇺🇸🇫🇷

On behalf of the French, thank you.

My friends @alex_reddiamond and @xav_reenactment are holding the pictures of T/Sgt Ray O.Stevens and Cpt Taylor N. Fellers who both served in A Company of the 116th Infantry Regiment, 29th Infantry Division. 🇺🇸

This two men were from Bedford, Virginia and paid the ultimate price on June 6, 1944, on Dog Green Sector, Omaha Beach.

It has been a real privilege to work on this documentary to make sure these men will not be forgotten. 🥀

When I see this picture that my friend @lloyd_scott_dday took during the filming this week-end on Omaha, I can’t stop thinking about this brave young m’en that lost their lives on D-Day.

A few months ago, my buddy @joedemadio_ww2 went to the National Archives in the United States and found this incredible picture of a soldier of the 5th Infantry Division here in Normandy.

The picture shows an American soldier of the "Red Diamond" ♦️ Division in Vidouville where the division had its baptism of fire in the late part of July 1944.

@joedemadio_ww2, @travelthroughtime644, @xav_reenactment and @alex_reddiamond went to explore the area in order to locate the location that we actually found. The owner of the house who is now 83 years old still remembers vividly the events that took place there 76 years ago.

What an incredible day.

YOUNG CPT AND DDAY HERO LOST HIS LIFE 76 YEARS AGO 🥀

Captain Ned S.Elder served in the United States army with the 743rd Tank Battalion. He was the company commander of Charly Company.

On June 6, 1944, the tanks of the 743rd Tk Bn supported the 116th Infantry Combat Team of the 29th Infantry Division assault of Omaha Beach. Enduring losses from enemy fire, artillery, mines, and even the rough surf, the tanks finally moved off the beach to the vicinity of Vierville-sur-Mer later during the day with heavy casualties.

Captain Elder survived this bloody day and was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross for his action on DDay but was sadly killed on July 11, 1944.

He now rests in peace for eternity at the Normandy American Cemetery not far from where he landed on D-Day. Plot G Row 25 Grave 30.

Thank you for your sacrifice Ned S.Elder, we will never forget.🇫🇷🇺🇸

OPERATION HUSKY ➖ INVASION OF SICILY
1943-2020 🎖

Exactly 77 years ago, members of the 82nd Airborne Division were performing their first combat jump over Sicily behind enemy lines in order to capture and secure the Italian Island which was under axis control.

Despite the wide scattering of the airborne troops, objectives were seized and the link up with infantry units coming from the beaches were made.

The Battle of Sicily was officially starting.

Thank you to those who took part in this operation and the ones who paid the ultimate sacrifice. 🥀

PS: I’m pretty sure the picture was taking before the jump but I’m still looking for the right caption.
