French media reports the Normandy Burial Site closed down in France for dejected American Tourists

French media reporting crying and sobbing American visitors to the hallowed site in Normandy; being turned away with their families as the burial site is shut down in France. (Its run by the American government.) Very sad; the visitors are sobbing; dejected; and mad at American Republicans.


For those that speak french; its at around 13:00; but non french speakers can simply follow the visuals

I visit their graves whenever I'm in southern California.

I just called to see if one could visit graves there today.

No answer...
