A love story in Normandy... reunited 75 years later!
/D-Day: Jeannine and her love reunited 75 years later
Jeannine’s touching story went around the world: this 92 years old French woman and her youth love, an American GI now 98 years old, were reunited. During the Second World War in 1944, 18-year-old Jeannine met a young American soldier, K.T Robbins, and they fell in love. However, one day, the GI was recalled to the front, and they did not see each other again or even speak on the phone.
During the commemoration of the D-Day on June 8 2019, they met in the retirement home where Jeannine now lives. A strong moment, rich in emotion, when they embraced as in the first day while revealing that they had never forgotten. Despite marriages and births, they had always thought about each other.
