There are many well known stories from D-Day and some that are lesser known. One of the latter might be the story of the first German general who was killed during the Battle of Normandy after a run in with some lost paratroopers of the 82nd Airborne Division. In this episode, we're joining Paul Woodadge of @WW2TV to explore the headquarters, death site and final resting place of Lt. General Wilhelm Falley.
