American soldiers in WWII came back with A LOT of war trophies after the war was over. It's always interesting to see what different guys chose to bring back home. In this episode, we're going to a place in Normandy that might be familiar if you've watched our past episodes to see what caught the eye of Dick Winters as he was making his way through the opening days of the Battle of Normandy.
