This is a very sad picture, of a little 4 year old girl name Danielle Laisney, she was giving flowers to Veterans at the third Sliver Star medal ceremony in the town square in front of the WW1 monument in Carentan France on the 23rd June 1944.
As the ceremony was ending a green signal flare burst overhead, then the Germans fired lots of shots with there guns killing at least 6 Civilian's including poor Danielle Laisney.
This is really horrible, i feel very sad for her family, If i was around when the war was on i would of been terrified, it would of been very noisy with all the loud bangs, the ear piercing screams the sounds of the guns, helicopters and tanks. It would of smelt like fireworks with the gunpowder and maybe blood.
I agree Lukas, living through a war like this would be terrifying. I think your describing words are perfect, they help me picture what you are thinking. I like how you are aware of how lucky we are to not be living in these conditions. Great work all week Lukas, see you next week!
