And Little Children Line The Rail
France—A huge crowd of 1600 residents of Grandcamp, Little Normandy town, gathered in the main square to help Yank troops of occupation celebrate Independence Day. It was a day of independence for the French inhabitants also. Suffering under the heel of the ruthless Nazis for four years, Grandcamp is grateful to the Americans who liberated them. Town was the first freed by the Yanks. Note the little children lined on the rail anxious to see the celebration.
