TO GO WITH AFP STORY BY CHLOE COUPEAU This photo released by the Dargols family, shows French veteran Bernard Dargols (L) interrogating a man from Normandy on July 1944, in Cerisy-la-Foret, a village liberated by the US second infantery division. Bernard Dargols, 94, who took part in the D-Day landing at Omaha beach in Normandie in 1944, landed as a GI on June 8, 1944, at Omaha Beach in Normandy inspiring the Memorial of Caen's project of a virtual GI, Louis Castel, who exists on Twitter and Facebook. In what remains the biggest amphibious assault in history, some 156,000 Allied personnel landed in France on June 6, 1944. An estimated 10,000 Allied troops were left dead, wounded or missing, while Nazi Germany lost between 4,000 and 9,000 troops, and thousands of French civilians were killed.
