Rencontres D-DAY

On Thursday April 4, 2024, the town of Carentan-les-Marais hosted one of the Rencontres D-DAY organized by France Bleu Cotentin.

It was an intergenerational evening, rich in moving testimonials. Among them, never-before-published stories told for the first time to the general public!

After this highlight, it was time for debate over a drink organized by the Sainte Mère Eglise brewery!

Testimonials and photos of the event are already available on the France Bleu Cotentin website.
