GETTYSBURG, Pa. (P) — The man who commanded the Allied invasion of Europe 18 years ago marked its anniversary today with quiet hours of work.
Former President Dwight D. Eisenhower on D-Day came to his tree-shaded office on the Gettysburg College campus at 7:50 a.m.
It was a bright, brisk morning at Gettysburg, a far cry from the cloud-shrouded skies of the Normandy beaches.
The general's office staff reported he spent the morning working on a book he is writing. At 11 a.m. a delegation from the Military Order of Foreign Wars of the United States gave him an honorary certificate of membership in the Pennsylvania branch.
