That's exactly why I wrote 'help' to liberate. No doubt it was a joint effort. Whereas I believe most of those who died that day were from the USA, I salute all who braved those dangerous beaches; their individual bravery knew no country. But, I'm very proud, again, that the USA was able to help liberate France; all the way to Paris.
