Veterans commemorated the 80th Anniversary of D-Day during two ceremonies at the Saline American Legion Post 322 Thursday.
On June 6, 1944, the Allies stormed the beaches in Normandy, France, establishing a foothold in Europe that was important to the efforts to liberate Nazi-occupied territories and the defeat of Germany in World War II.
On Thursday morning at 6:30 a.m., the veterans honored the Americans who fought at Normandy with a bugle reveille and salute.
