On June 5, 1944, one day before D-Day, Jim “Pee Wee” Martin parachuted into Europe with the U.S. 101st Airborne Division to take France back from the Nazis.
Exactly 70 years later, a spry Martin took a trans-Atlantic journey to recreate his jump.
“It didn’t [compare to before],” Martin, 93, told CNN Thursday, “because there wasn’t anybody shooting at me today.”
