If so, did he ever speak about D-Day?

My father was there in the second wave but didn't say much except about finding a German jeep with two dead Germans and driving farther inland. He apparently liked the French - learned a bit of the language which I knew nothing about until I took a French class. He surprised me and my mother who had no idea he knew that much French.
