69 years

If you were 17 years old, this day 69 years ago, visiting France for the first time, you'd be 86 now.  Fading a bit.

One of the things I will always treasure was the opportunity to parade with, and then drink beer with, the veterans of the WWII unit I portray as a reenactor.

I do regret not being able to make the trip a year earlier, when the last CO actually inspected the reenactors prior to the parade.
