Grafton. Some areas there are ten feet of water. Today was a tragic day. At least one west point cadet is dead and 22 others are injured after a crash involving a transport truck. Mason and a widows fight for recognition for one of the last Unsung Heroes of dday. He served his country well. The history needs to be told. Mason good evening. Im Anthony Mason reporting from normandy, france, where the allied troops who landed here 75 years ago were hailed today as liberators. President trump said, they won back this ground for civilization by opening a new front that ultimately pushed the nazis out of western europe. The dday invasion was the Largest Military operation by sea and air in history. More than 150,000 troops stormed the beaches, running directly into german gunfire. 2,500 americans died that first day. Today, cannons fired and planes flew overhead in honor of their sacrifice. And dday veterans now in their 90s visited the graves of fellow soldiers, many of whom were teenagers when they gave their lives. President trump and french president Emmanuel Macron took the stage along the cliffs of normandy near the spot where thousands lost their lives, and it was those who battled their way up those cliffs 75 years ago today who they honored. President trump paid tribute to the bravery and heroism of the living and the dead. To the men who sit behind me, and to the boys who rest in the field before me, your example will never ever grow old. Mason the president also poignantly singled out some in attendance. Private pickett, you honor us all with your presence. Mason like 94yearold russell pickett, a private first class wounded in the first wave that had landed on nearby omaha beach. He would not be denied the chance to stand and accept the appreciation of the crowd and the president , who also thanked all veterans in attendance. Youre the pride of our nation. You are the glory of our republic. And we thank you from the bottom of our hearts. [cheering and applause] mason the french president wasted no time expressing his own countrys gratitude. We know what we owe our freedom. On behalf of my nation, i just want to say thank you. [applause] mason many of the veterans accepted the good wishes of both World Leaders and their wives before witnessing a military flyover. And a 21gun salute. [gunfire] among the returning veterans, 96yearold jake larson, who was just 21 when he barely made it across the beach on june 6, 1944. To feel that sand brings back so many memories. Mason larson is one of a dwindling number of surviving veterans, most in their 90s. He says he is the last man in his unit still alive. I turned to my left. Three feet from me there was a soldier. I says, buddy, have you got a match . He didnt answer. I looked again, and there was no head under the helmet. The soul of that boy inspired me to up at that instant and run for the cliffs. [taps playing] mason just 4 of world war ii veterans survive, and those in france today insisted the real heroes were the more than 9,300 buried near that beach, boys who never became men. That ceremony meant so much to the returning veterans. Jake larson told me when he returned to omaha beach for the First Time Since he had been there 75 years ago, he felt like he had won the lottery. President trump has made America First one of his favorite catchphrases, but his speech today had a different tone. Heres paula reid. Our debt to you is everlasting.

Urope, butto our cherished alliance was forged in the heat of battle anf peace. Reporter since leaving the white house for europe, President Trump has alternated between senior statesman its an amazing place. Reporter and provocateur. No, i dont think much of him. Reporter today in an interview with fox news at the u. S. Cemetery in normandy, the president attacked former special counsel and vietnam veteran robert mueller. He made such a fool out of himself. Reporter and had this to say about House Speaker nancy pelosi. I call her nervous nancy. Nancy pelosi is a disaster. Shes a disaster. Reporter pelosi, also attending the dday ceremony, declined to engage. Im not talking about him while im overseas. Thank you. Reporter the president s scripted remarks we just heard here really do echo what weve heard from past president s, embracing this idea of shared sacrifice, but what makes President Trumps remarks today so significant is that many people believe this could be the last time a u. S. President has the opportunity to address these dday veterans in person here in normandy, because as they get older, it gets harder and harder for them to travel here for the commemoration. Mason thats true. Thanks very much, paula. Later in the broadcast well meet a dday veteran who has come back to normandy full time. Why hes decided to live here.

Will impose an escalating tariff on all mexican goods starting at 5 on monday. We told mexico, the tariffs go on, and i mean it, too, and im very happy with it. Reporter cbs news has learned mexico offered to deploy 6,000 troops to its border with guatemala, but the white house said that was not enough. Now mexico has pledged to change its asylum policy so that migrants would apply for asylum there instead of continuing to the u. S. An Administration Source described that as encouraging. Mexicos foreign minister, who is in washington for negotiations, said both sides should want to avoid tariffs. The tariffs could be very costly for the u. S. Economy, the consumers in the United States, and the mexican economy. Reporter a white house official tells cbs news President Trump and his mexican counterpart have not spoken directly, and david, they are the only two people who can strike a deal.

He said that the men were just dropping, just dropping so fast. Some of them were so wounded there was nothing that you could do but just give them their last rites. Begnaud according to a History Channel report, the then21yearold woodson spent nearly 30 hours trying to save lives. He reportedly treated as many as 200 men before collapsing from hal should get the medal of honor like the rest of the guys did. Veterans of 236 missions in begnaud in 1993, a u. S. Army report concluded that racial bias was a reason no African AmericanWorld War Ii Service members received the medal of honor. After that seven did. Woodson was considered. Its pretty clear that had he been a white soldier he would have received the medal of honor, and the only thing that has stood in the way was the color of his skin. Begnaud maryland senator Chris Van Hollen says a fire in 1973 destroyed ny all of woodsons military records, and without those documents, the army says it cannot reconsider him for the medal of honor. Im reminded that your husband helped to free the world, but he still had to battle for recognition. Thats absolutely the way we think about it, too. Begnaud we thank you, and we thank him for his service. And i thank you very much also. Begnaud you know, mr. Woodson died in 2005.
