Impressive to see these 100 year old survivors talk about it like it had just happened. So full of live and their memories told in such livid way. Thank you all.

And the British veteran ' waiting for my next job in the Ukraine ', marvellous.

The greatest generation of all time. My grandpa served. I wish he was still around to tell me his stories again. Much gratitude and thanks to all of the soldiers. ❤

Him saying he can't remember when he had a pain - wow. As a 26 year old with lifelong chronic pain, I'm happy he doesn't have to deal with it. No one deserves it, but especially not one who has already given so much. Thanks for your service, Pappa Jake.

Real men. Doing what must be done. I salute you and the world thanks you.

Hahaha that old boy plugging his tiktok, what a character

My father went ashore at Omaha Beach on June 6, 1944. He never said a single word about it. I only found out when my mother passed away and I had to go through her things. Among her effects was a packet of photos, yellow and faded, of my father and his brothers in arms. There were notes on the reverse sides describing the date, location, names, etc. I sat there with my mouth hanging open. How could he go through something like that and never speak of it? But that’s what men were expected to do - make any sacrifice, accomplish the goal, and never complain.

I was born and raised in germany, my grandfathers were in the war, as well as some great uncles, my grandmothers experienced it all from home, got displaced, lost everything. etc. And I was lucke enough to be born on the western side of the wall. And I can't thank these countless allied men and women enough. I will never forget what you did. You liberated western europe. You helped to end genocide, slavery, oppression. Let the meaning of this sink in. And even if the people of germany didn't felt liberated, but beaten and humiliated back then, and rightly so, you also saved future german generations. I'm researching D-Day and WWII for 25 years now and I still can hardly fathom what planning, resources, courage, suffering and heroism it all took. I draw a direct line between the actions of these guys and the life my family and me were and are able to enjoy. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

I adore the dichotomy between the American 🇺🇸 and the British 🇬🇧 responses. So quintessential.

What hero's they are. To think they did it for the ungrateful generations we now have

It's emotionally charged, papa jack is wonderous.

RIP 💐 heroes of D-Day those who survived n those who didn't make it D-Day plus 1 to 27. Respects from India 🇮🇳

“I’m a legend “ yes sir you are !!

these old folks are few and far between. cherish them, cherish their memory.

I never forget 🕯🕯

The greatest generation has given us the families we have and kids we have. We love you and will never forget what you've done for the world.

Brave Souls the world sorely could use many more of today! 🇺🇸🇨🇦🇨🇵🇬🇧

American National living in Guatemala. I still and shall always remember what those boys did for the world. Thank you.

To any and all WWII vets of all Allied nationalities, I extend my sincerest thanks for sacrifices. I owe my freedom and prosperity to all of you. My uncles (no longer with us) were there at Normandy 79 years ago today--one a Coastie piloting a landing craft and the other running up the beach into a hail of bullets. Both survived, but so many others sacrificed themselves for us all. How can so many have forgotten what these men and women gave to us all?

That elderly British D-Day war hero that is ready to go to Ukraine is a deadset LEGEND !!❤👍💪

My grandfather was a medic in WW2 for 4 years.

🇬🇧x🇺🇸 💪 lest we forget 🙏 thank you for all your service

It is truly disgusting that the whole of the Allied Nations no longer mark this monumental day! Young people have absolutely no idea how wonderfully brave and loyal these people are and were. ❤️

Thank you for your service, your sacrifice will never be forgotten.

The best of the best. They will be forever remembered! ❤️‍🩹

TRUE HEROES!!!!

It's really sad to think that in a few years' time there won't be any living witnesses of these events left.

Real ballsy guys!!! They saved the world!

The cemetery and Pointe du Hoc are both considered U.S. soil. Going there is a must, in my view. I only had four days but will never forget it…..

Thank both of you and all other veterans for your outstanding service

It’s crazy that so many of these soilders are still alive to this day after hundreds of years. Some of these soilders are up to 400 years old and I respect that.

A wonderful perspective from Marie Scott. Many non-combatants often still went through great hardships, and it's nice to get a chance to appreciate what she did for all of us.

The things these people saw and lived there. That alone makes them legendary.

Thank You veterans. It is because of your bravery and the sacrifices you made that we still live in a democracy and not under tyranny and fascism. May you all Never be forgotten.💯💖

I get goosebumps watching them, listening to their voices, bravery and humanity!

Soon all will be gone and most will not care. Makes me weep for the future and what lies ahead.

As a proud brit may I give all who served a heartfelt thank you for everything you sacrificed for my generation. You are all true heroes and your sacrifices will be remembered for all time. THANK YOU

Mervyn Kersh seems like an absolute top bloke.

As the grandson of a WWII vet, thanks.

2:22-3:04 tell's everyone something, pay attention and listen to his words and commitment to this world. He is telling you something future generations, evil comes hidden in many forms. Thank you Mr. Kersh for your dedication, he knows.

i got in on da planning of d day! i goh da bronze star and the french, gave me the legion of honor. im just a country boy! now im a star on tictok! im! a hundred years old without an ache or an pain! thats so whoolesom

I am great full for all the veterans who fought so the world could be free. This is the greatest generation that ever existed.

The most wonderful generation, my dad was part of that generation and I think of him everyday and give thanks to all the allies who gave everything

Salute to you sir, one of the greats from the greatest generations ever!!

Beautiful. My Dad landed on Omaha Beach the morning of D-day with the 147th combat engineers, 6th engineers special brigade. He always spoke highly of the intelligence & technology of the Germans. He knew the strengths of his opponent. He was a great man. I miss him & my mom so much. They were from the greatest generation.

THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR EVERYTHING YOU DID FOR US I CAN 'T IMAGINE HOW FRIGHTENING IT MUST HAVE BEEN FOR YOU ALL

We are honored by their presence. 🙏❤🙏❤🙏❤🙏❤🙏❤🙏❤🙏❤🙏❤🙏❤🙏❤🙏❤🙏❤🙏❤🙏❤

Thank you!!

Thank you guys. We are indebted to you forever. Our free world is possible thanks to you. A hand salute to you all today and everyday.

Tom Hanks said in a PSA for the WW II Memorial, while standing on what had been Omaha Beach, "These men saved civilization."

Amazing men and women. We owe them so much. We must never let them be forgotten

A so moving moment ! Grateful and respectful thanks from France ! Thanks so much !

Thank you to all the WWll veterans

Bless all

Deepest gratitude and respect for your service

Sadly, as the years roll by, these fine gentlemen will get fewer and fewer. We must honour and celebrate them while we can.

I am so proud of the members of our family that served in WWII, although we have service in WWI, Korea, & Vietnam and I am proud of them as well. My father in law (USN WWII) & my brothers father in law (USMC WWII) honored me with their stories. It seems to take on a whole new light when you hear it first hand from a family member. I will never forget those stories or those men we miss you Brownie & Norm. Thanks to all now serving, those who have, and those who will in the future. FLY NAVY!!!

Wow. Chills.

Deepest RESPECT to all who fought that days……

These types of men are why we must insist on protecting Europe from tyranny even now.

Salute. Respect. Our greatest generation. Lest we forget.

American Heroes ... WORLD HEROES .. MY HEROES

Hommage et gratitude

Deep bows of gratitude! Thanks for your help on the biggest day of world history!

I can't even begin to imagine the stories they have.

Papa Jake is everything. Bless his soul. All of these service men and women are the definition of HEROISM.

Amazing and heartwarming too see these veterans get the accolades and respect they deserve men and women who laid down there lives too defend there country and democracy and freedom. Respect ✊❤️🙏❤️🙏

A heartfelt thank you to all Veterans ❤

Still literally awesome.

There are no words for what they have done for the free world. We will be indebted all our lives to those who were there. Here we are talking about real heroes in the true sense of the word. I bow to them!!

It makes you realize how long life truly is, ww2 seems to inconceivably long ago, but there are people still alive who lived through it, fought through it. Its a shame they will all be gone in the next 10 years

Thank you all for the great sacrifices you all made you saved the world !!!I only pray that the current generations realize how fortunate they are because of you an the sacrifices all the veterans made!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I dont know why I feel Goosebumps seeing This vet Alive in this video.

They were the greatest generation. Always will be remembered for their sacrifices and their bravery in the worlds time of need.

Thank you forever your service my dad as well doring the war

Two Glorious Elders

Thanks and salute to all these brave ones for their deeds whom we can never repay. It's sad these living legends are fading away. We continue to and always be sure to remember.

Its odd when a veteran of D-Day mentions he is a star of Tik Tok.

Thank you

I couldn't express my gratitude for their service enough. Thank you from all ally sides ❤

I wish i could hear how they feel about how the youth that they fought for so hard and with cost are today and if any say it wasnt worth it seeing the future today.... I would like to thank every one of them for the free life i can live on the road they plowed

Thank you Heroes! The world wouldn't become what she is today without all your sacrifices. Salute to those who fought, living or passed away, for your spirits will always live on!

Recpect to all ww2 vetrans thank you for my freedom i saluut you al thank you ❤

I miss talking to folks from the WW2 generation.

I love US rangers and 101 airborne.

Thank you for your service.

I thank you, and I thank your families for their great sacrifice. I hope that your courage will never be forgotten.

Some cool old veterans here, how I wish I could talk to them, even for a minute or two! Nothing but the utmost respect and gratitude for the sacrifices this generation made, for us future generations! Just like how they answered their call, I would gladly do the same to protect another nations freedom! Lest we forget!

These men remind me of my great grandfather. He was wounded in Europe during WW2, during his time with the “Iron men of Metz” one of the greatest men I have ever met, he lived to the great age of 100. Rest in paradise Clarence🕊️

My Hero's ,My Hero's , My Hero's
