75 years later, a D-Day veteran meets with his French love again - France 2

 Before coming to France for the D-Day commemorations this year, K.T. Robbins, a 98-year-old veteran, had one wish: meet with his French love again. He'd met her during the war, in 1944, in a small town in Eastern France. All these years, he kept her picture, and the memory of her name. Jeannine Ganaye. We were able to find this woman, and to organize their reunion. 

A very special thanks to both of their families, Diane Hight from Forever Young who first told us about the great story of K.T. Robbins, and the retirement residence of Sainte Famille (Montigny-les-Metz).
