D-Day veterans return to Normandy for 80th anniversary of Allied invasion

Amna Nawaz:

Eighty years ago tomorrow, the liberation of Europe from the horrors of the Nazis began with Operation Overlord, the Allied invasion of Normandy.

Nearly 200,000 soldiers, principally Americans, Brits and Canadians, landed on June 6 of 1944 across five beach sectors, Utah, Omaha, Gold, Juno, and Sword.

Malcolm Brabant is in Northern France and met some of the veterans of D-Day, now all around 100 years old, to begin our coverage of this 80th anniversary.

Chief Master Sgt. Mel Jenner (Ret.), U.S. Army Air Corps: The bodies in the water, they looked like logs floating in the water.
