World War II

Keith Taylor, a 73-year-old retired transport worker, dressed as a World War II fire officer poses for a photo after watching parachutists jump Wednesday June 5, 2019, over the Normandy town of Carentan, which was one of the initial objectives of the June 6, 1944, D-Day invasion. Taylor said his father, William Taylor, served as a firefighter in the East End of London during the Blitz, the mass bombing raids of the British capital and other cities by the Luftwaffe in 1940-1941. "He went through a lot," Taylor said of his father. "He had post-traumatic stress, we reckon, after the war." (AP Photo/Rafael Yaghobzadeh)
