It is said- ‘Love has no age, no phase, love is love, when it happens it is limitless!’ This is the specialty of love. In love, people neither look at each other’s caste, religion, community, color, nor age. Recently, a hero of the second world war proved this. This 100-year-old former soldier has married his girlfriend (World War 2 veteran marry girlfriend), who is only 4 years younger than him. As special as their wedding was, the place where they got married was even more special.
According to news agency AP, Harold Terens went to Normandy, France for the first time when he was 20 years old. He was an Air Force Corporal in the US Army and was part of the Allied Forces in the Second World War who carried out the Normandy Invasion on 6 June 1944, under which the Allied Forces liberated France from the Nazi occupation. It is also called 1944 or D-Day of the Second World War.

100 year old ex-soldier got married
Now after 80 years, Harold reached Normandy again. This time too he was not alone, but was with his girlfriend. He married his 96-year-old girlfriend Jean Swerlin here and wrote the story of love. Before the marriage, Harold had said in an interview that he is very happy that he is going to marry the woman who is the most beautiful woman in the world and is a great dancer. Both grew up in New York City, but in 2021, the daughter of Jean Swerlin’s first husband introduced them to each other. For the first time, both went to dinner together and fell in love with each other.

Last Saturday, both of them got married in the city of Shorte named Carentan. After the marriage, the President invited both of them for a state dinner at the Elysee Palace, the official residence of the President of France, where US President Joe Biden also attended. France’s D-Day invasion had completed 80 years just a few days ago. On this occasion, many other former soldiers including Harold were also honored.
