In the early hours of June 6, 1944, Langrehr joined thousands of other paratroopers jumping into the pitch black skies over Normandy in to secure bridges in advance of the amphibious landings on the beaches that morning.In this edition of "Veterans Chronicles," Langrehr tells us about his crash landing in Ste. Mere Eglise, and what he did after he landed. He also shares the riveting stories of hand-to-hand fighting in the hedgerows, being taken prisoner by the Germans, his daring escape from captivity, and his harrowing journey across enemy territory to rejoin American forces.
