WWII hero and friend of From Mists of Time, Major Henry “Duke” Boswell was part of the WWII 82nd Airborne Operation Overlord, 75 years ago. He was honored by the ancestors of those lives he and his troops saved of Mere Sainte Eglise. They treated him as a hero, leading the parades and celebrations for a week. The mayor of the city and the citizen’s have wonderful memories of our American boys liberating their towns. Josh also served in the 82nd and returns to France in Duke’s honor. This year will be the largest celebration to date!
