It's surreal when you walk on Juno Beach.There are gun enplacements and bunkers still there and people are sunning themselves and kids are playing.Also what struck me was how open and defenseless the troops would have been running onto the beach from their landing boats.Took a lot of nerve and bravery for sure!
