TUESDAY, MAY 28, 2002

President Bush marked Memorial Day at the site of the D-Day Invasion of World War II with a speech linking that global battle with the war on terrorism.

Bush spoke to a group of schoolchildren in France about the sacrifices made by America's warriors. "It is fitting that we remember those who sacrificed, because today we defend our freedoms," he said.

Bush left for Europe last week and has met with leaders of Russia, Germany and France. He is in Italy today for a NATO summit.
