7:03 am
we shall remember you when as when you were reverently placed in this ground. your service and sacrifice will have meaning so long as those who keep burning through history's darkest hours. welcome to "cbs this morning." it's been a very emotional morning. listen, you heard "the star-spangled banner" and the flag and it's the anniversary of d-day. whoa, what a day. you're looking at live pictures macing the end of the historic celebrations in france of the landmark d-day vin is 75 years a ago. there's president trump and the first lady and president macron. they overlook the conclusions of this morning's ceremony. it was a pivotal moment to defeat nazi germany. anthony mason is in normandy. he's leading our coverage there. we'll hear from him in just a moment. cbs co-host dana jacobson is
7:04 am
with us at the table. we begin with respect and reverence with the greatest generation, mixed with the joy and honor and pride this morning at the ceremony marking the anniversary. >> that's right. this morning president trump and emmanuel macron viewed omaha beach during a 21-gun salute. [ sound of gunfire ] >> anthony mason is at the american cemetery and memorial in normandy where the event took place. anthony, a picture worth a thousand words throughout the morning there. >> yeah. quite a ceremony, dana. it is a bright and beautiful day in normandy. nothing like 75 years ago when bad weather threatened to scuttle the invasion. the first allied troops in 944 were followed by hundreds of
7:05 am
thousands who drove german occupiers out of france and forced the surrender of nazi germany in may of 1945, but the success of d-day came at the cost of thousands of lives. more than 9300 u.s. service members are buried here in normandy. about 100 survivors from the u.s. and other countries are here to honor them andemembe the events of d-day. many veterans took the opportunity to embrace both president macron and president trump who spoke about what was at stake those many years ago. >> 10,000 men shed their blood and thousands sacrificed their lives for their brothers, for their countries, and for the survival of liberty. today we remember those who fell and we honor all who fought right here in normandy. they won back this ground for
7:06 am
civilization. >> president macron alongside president trump presented the legion of honor to five american veterans with the number of vets quickly diminishing, recognizing the best way to honor the vets sacrifice made 75 years ago is never to forget. this morning's speeches highlighted the sacrifices of the troops who took part in the invasion. we've heard from many this morning. mark phillips has covered several of these d-day ceremonies. mark, what makes this day so very special? >> the fact that it's the 75th. if you were a young soldier around the age of 20 as many of them were coming on the shore 75 years ago, you're well into your 90s, some in their late 90s, and this could well be the last time this living history can return
7:07 am
here to have this experience and provide the lessons that an event like this provides. >> it is interesting, it may be the last time and then, surprisingly for some of these veterans, it's the first time they've been here since the invasion. it's been emotional, hasn't it. >> it has. some you hear for the first time. many getting on in years, wanting their children and grandchildren to know not just their personal story but the significance of what took place, not just the sacrifice, but the heroism and the history as well. >> during the ceremony we saw one veteran stand out of a wheelchair to hug president trump. how important is the evidence of that. >> the evidence of that is pretty important. private first class russell pickett. he landed in omaha beach. he was wounded three times, once in the first wave, sent back to the hospital. came back six days later, was
7:08 am
wounded again, was wounded a third time later in the battle in france and is the last survivor, it seems, of company a that landed on the beaches here that day. >> there were a number of veterans who were singled out today both by president macron and by president trump. in talking to these veterans in the last few days, what strikes you most about them? >> i think the fact that they've long ago come to terms with what happened here. now they're dealing with the significance in their lives. you know, a lot of them went back home, started their families, had their jobs, started their businesses and what happened. it's now occurring to them as it would late in your -- as you're approaching 100 years old that this was probably a semminal moment in their lives. >> i was talking to jake larson who we'll hear from later in the show. he said the thing that keeps
7:09 am
coming back to him is how lucky i was to leave here, seeing so many of your colleagues buried behind you. that is the sentiment of a lot of the guys. >> you'll hear luck and they were heroes. they'll say we're not the heroes. the people in these graves are. >> it's a sentiment shared by the veterans here. >> true heroes never say you know i'm a hero. this is what strikes me about all of this. this is what strikes me about all of the men. you talk about how emotional it is for the men. it is emotional for everyone who is just watching on television to hear their stories and to see what you have to say to them. two a tee, what do you find they have in common? is it their grit? is it their courage? is it their candor? what is it? >> do you want to take that one. >> thanks. >> it's all of those things, gayle. >> it's what mark said. everybody said we had a job to do. it's almost the first answer you get from every one of these
7:10 am
veterans. no matter how heroic they were on the day, none of them want to take credit, and they want to give credit to the people they knew they left behind. they're all very conscious of that, that they were lucky enough to lead their lives and have family. >> i think pride is the word you often hear. not just pride in what they did but pride in what the unit did, the band of brothers phrase so often coined. >> i mentioned jake larson and he stood on the beach and said why i am here. why i was the one that got to leave this beach and that is a question a lot of men still ask at this point, gayle. >> one of the notes you keep hear recurring from the veterans is they're not the heroes, it's the men honored today, the men underneath the crosses that we're showing now. i'm curious. have the veterans had an
7:11 am
opportunity to make a visit to the cemetery that we're seeing behind you? >> they made visits here. it's difficult for some of them to get around. it's probably difficult for most of them to get around. there are points where you can get down to the beach where it's easier than at the cemetery where it's almost impossible because the bluffs are so high. as i said that, for a number of them, it's actually their first trip after 75 years, so it's an incredibly moving experience for them. a lot of them have brought their families, sons, wives, and so forth. and they know it's really their last chance. mark, thank you very much. this morning a somber ceremony in normandy will be followed by political meetings between two allies that don't always see eye to eye. president trump and president macron will meet in nearby cannes to discuss a series of topics. paula reid is here. traveling with the president. paula, what can we expect out of those meetings?
7:12 am
>> today we saw both men on stage celebrating the allied forced that defended democracy 75 years ago. but today they meet amid the international uncertainty about transatlantic alliances. both men in remarks touched upon common themes honoring those who risked their lives here in norm andy. and watching them commemorate together it sort of harkened back to the beginning of their relationship which began wamly but then soured after the president tore up the paris climate agreement and the iran nuclear deal. his relationship with macron is one casualty of the world order emerging from world war ii, for example president trump has questioned the value of nato, an appliance formed after the war and he argues that other members don't contribute enough and nato secretary general said that following president trump's remarks, there were more investments. but today when he meets with the president of france, trade is
7:13 am
expected to be a key topic to discuss. macron said that france is now opposed to any trade negotiations with countries outside of the paris climate agreement. later today the president will head to ireland but it is unlikely that any of his frayed relationships with european leaders will be mended even after today's celebration of shared sacrifice. >> you saw big embraced between the two leaders but significant differences as well. we'll have much more ahead from natural andy, including stormies from veterans who returned for this anniversary. now back to new york. >> anthony, we look forward to that. anthony mason in normandy. now, as he traveled to normandy, president trump blamed mexico for the growing number of migrants illegally crossing the southern border. last month the border agents made 132,000 apprehensions, the highest level since 2006, amounting to 4,000 people aday.
7:14 am
the president plans to respond with tariffs on all mexican goods despite opposition from the his own party and others. >> we told mexico the tariffs go on, and i mean it too. and i'm very happy with it. a lot of people, the senators included, they have no idea what edey're talking about when it comes to tariffs. >> mexico's minister in washington for negotiations and weijia jiang is at the white house. where do the talks with mexico stand right now? >> reporter: good morning, dana. the president said the u.s. and mexico teams are making progress, but quote, not nearly enough to prevent the tariffs. today talks will continue after secretary pompeo and vice president pence and other administration officials met with the mexican delegation here at the white house yesterday. afterwards marcela abrard said immigration was the focus of the negotiation and not the tariffs. he's optimistic he'll reach a deal to stop them but if the two sides don't agree on a solution
7:15 am
5% tariffs on all mexican goods will go in effect on monday and will hit 25% in october. many republicans have expressed opposition and concerns that american consumers will pay for it. the auto industry would take the toughest hit and car prices could soar by over $1,000. mexico is our biggest trading partner so everything from electronics to beer to fruits and vegetables will cost more. congress could try to block the tariffs and actually earlier this week republicans warned the white house they may have enough votes to override a presidential veto. tony. >> weijia, thank you. breaking news from new york where 20 military personnel from the u.s. military academy were involved in a serious vehicle crash this morning. the accident happened at camp natural bridge near the west point campus about 50 miles north of new york city. the academy uses the site as a summer training ground. local fire officials say five people were trapped in the
7:16 am
wreckage and had to be cut out. one was airlifted to a hospital with serious injuries. so far other injuries are described fortunately as minor. more historic flooding will ravage the central u.s. into the weekend. 7 million americans are at -- 7 million americans, rather, are at risk from rising rivers this morning. adriana diaz is in grafton, illinois, along the border with more on this story. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. as you could see the situation here in grafton is dire. the town built this wall i'm standing on out of concrete and gravel to protect main street but water has seeped through why is why they are using pumps to get the water out, all night long on the other side of the wall there are ten feet of water in some areas. 100 people have been evacuated and businesses that were ruined in past floods are now ruined
7:17 am
again. the mayor tell us there have been four floods here since october and part of the issue is this is where the mississippi and the illinois rivers mt. so heavy rainfall and snow melt up north have led to this flooding. roads throughout the state are fully submerged in one of the longest-running floods in the sta state's history. several towns from minnesota to arkansas have been evacuated and to the south a storm in the gx brought flood threats to texas and arkansas where the water is already covering farmland. the rain is expected to continue in the gulf for the next few days but things will dry out here in the midwest. the rivers are expected to crest as early as tonight so the worst will be over here, but the water won't recede until next month. >> mother nature's wrath. thank you. a power outage at los angeles international airport last night caused major disruption. entire airport temporarily went dark while equipment was
7:18 am
rebooted and emergency generators kicked in. thousands of passengers were effected. many were left stranded on planes and jetways. dozens of flights were delayed, diverted or canceled. the airport signature pylons also lost power. airport officials urges travelers to check with their airlines for flight updates. >> i here there was a three-hour delay for people. >> lights going out at an airport is frightening. >> very scary, especially in today's world. a former ohio doctor is accused of mass murder. how prosecutors say he gave deadly doses of a pain killer to 25 patients in his we've got a real nice day today compared to yesterday. we cool all the way back down to average for just about all of us. that means it is only in the low 80s inland. we were in the mid to upper 90s yesterday. the number for redwood city is 71 and 71 in san rafael and that is santa rosa coming in at
7:19 am
7:20 am
dozens of veterans traveled to dozens of veterans traveled to normandy to see the beaches they fought so bravely for years ago. it was a trip back for jake larson. >> never in my life did i ever think that i would be standing at omaha beach on the 75th anniversary of d-day. it's like a dream come true, like i won the lottery. >> larson stormed the shore during the invasion and says he is the last living member of his army unit. coming up on "cbs this morning," he shares his vivid memories of that day and what it feels like to return decades later as we continue our coverage from normandy. please sir.

7:34 am
unbelievable things that could ever happen to me. i never figured out living this long. 96 years old is not chicken feed. >> no, sir, it's not. but larson almost didn't make it here, and it wasn't because of his age but because of funding. veteran organizations were going to help, but there was a problem. >> as quick as they found out that my service records were burned up, they dropped me like a hot potato. >> but two women at his favorite coffee shop decided to raise money for him through a crowd funding site. >> when they told me they were going to put that on the internet or someplace, i said i'm going to get one of the chairs here and a tin cup sitting out front and i bet i'll pick up more outside here than you for that. i said who's going to pay money for me to go over there. >> turns out a lot of people

it's a ludicrous idea. >> fantastic. >> it's crazy. here are ones we did in london. we just went to paris, did one in paris. when we take the show to london in a couple of weeks -- i haven't seen this. look, we did "les miserables" in front of the art detrio. you have never seen people % angrier. >> i was going to say, is that the worst thing you've had? >> oh, yeah, because now when we do it in l.a. or new york, people are like, oh, it's that thing they've done on tv. >> i think i've been someplace in paris but they don't have a clue what's gong on. >> going back to the tonys on sunday, i know you're ready. back in in the green room, he was already on the phone. what were you checking. >> we're opening the show with quite a big ambitious song, and
8:37 am
i was listening to part of the orchestra arrangement for that and it was making me -- >> a little agitated. >> did you like it? >> listen. look. it's not about whether we can pull it off live. there is a feeling that we may have bitten off slightly more than we can chew. >> james, you chose this line of work. you've wanted to do it forever. tell us about it. there's a moment in your childhood where you go to a play, walk out with your dad. >> yeah. i went -- from when i was about sort of 10 or 11, i -- all i really ever wanted to do was go to the theater, so i would -- that would be my -- i stopped having birthday parties. my mom and dad would say we can't get you a present or do a
8:38 am
party. these tickets are expensive. it was everything. i went to see a musical "me and my girl." they had a brilliant actor in it called gill wilmar. it was really funny. i walked out of the theater and i said to my dad, that's what i want to do. i want to do that, dad. i want to do that. i'd forgotten that story until a play that i was in. we did that play at the adelphi theater. and i haven't been in that theater since my dad took me to the absolute spot where i said this when i was 14. yeah. we both had a nice, you know, cry. >> it's like a memory. >> a memory. >> a memory for you and your dad. >> i love how you incorporate your parents. >> we need to get them out working. they landed today and they're
8:39 am
already starting to film stuff for the show. it's crazy. >> you call the tonys the best award show. why? >> like most award shows -- most award shows are groups of millionaires giving each other gold statues and that is really it. that's it. whereas here is a show where all of these incredible casts. >> actors. >> people are paying $200, $300, $400 a ticket for some of these shows and they're going to perform right there, big moments from their shows all night, and you don't have to leave your living room to watch them. >> it brings broadway to the midwest. >> it's the continuing performance. it's the genuine actual show as opposed to watching, you know, various people get things from directing a show you saw last week. it's a genuine -- i think the more that we live online, the more we live on our phones, you're searching for a
8:40 am
collective life experience and that's what this offers. >> i never thought about it that way. i do think this. your iecti your infection -- >> infectious. >> i told you before the show, god, i told you i don't want to talk about my infection. >> your enthusiasm is infectious. >> all i did was ask for a cranberry juice and you knew exactly what i had, gayle. >> those yeast infections are not pretty. thank you, james corden. we better go. the tony awards this sunday night on cbs. that's exactly why you want to watch. >> all right. many world war ii veterans never told any battle stories. ahead, meet one

8:45 am
>> the history books have been written and rewritten, but for the veterans who came ashore on these beaches the events of june 6th are not history but life stories. mark, you've been with some of these the vets in the past couple days, retracing their footsteps on this special anniversary. >> yes. with each major anniversary, the veterans get fewer and fewer and the trip of them coming here of course gets harder and harder, and it is fascinating to hear why people now in their 90s make the effort. >> and those are the ones that hit us in the afternoon. >> a lot of veterans come back to normandy to come to terms with their past. for 97-year-old verne oller, this visit is about his life now, about sharing his memories with his wife of ten years, ruth. >> we never had one tank, not one tank d-day in our sector. >> for every man there -- >> verne oller had landed at omaha beach, the site of the worst american karn anl of the
8:46 am
normandy landings. he came in at h-hour-plus-1, just an hour after the invasion began, when the beach was a killing zone. >> we were outdone. >> when you hit the beach. >> we were outgunned because we were targets. they had cover. and -- >> you were exposed on the beach. >> we were exposed. >> verne was a 22-year-old texan with a mortar unit supporting the first waves of infantry, but he's never been the kind of guy to tell war v war stories. >> i put it aside, but i never forgot it. you can't dwell on it. i mean, the guys that dwell on it, i suppose, they're basket cases. >> reporter: but verne thought it was now or never to share his experiences with ruth and so he took her on this tour through the once bloody normandy battlefield country. >> we were all rookies as far as combat was concerned. another jeep. >> reporter: there's a lot of
8:47 am
second world war nostalgia at times like this, but verne doesn't need any visual clues. >> well, you don't forget it. you can't -- i can tell you the stuff that happened ten minutes after we landed, you know. >> reporter: and now he's told that stuff to ruth. why is it important that it be passed on? >> because the kids today do not know the sacrifices that were given for their freedom. >> that's something, huh? wow. >> reporter: coming back did more than revive memories for verne ollar. it reminded him why he had come here the first time. >> i think they should teach it at school, not just d-day, the e iwo jima and the psi lands and hitler and that had to be
8:48 am
eliminated. >> still clarity on the job, verne ollar came to do, 75 years ago. >> it's still amazing to me, mark, in a scene these veterans share these stories with their families really only now. >> well, he's been married to ruth for ten years. they married obviously quite late in his life, and he hasn't really told her any of this stuff, and the opportunity came up for him to take this tour and they said you can bring your wives along, he asked her if she wanted to go along and she said yes. here they are. >> mark phillips, thanks. back to you all in new york. >> all right, anthony. thank you. the past shapes your future. before we go, we'll check in with anthony one more time and on today's "cbs this morning" podcast, you'll hear a radio report filed from utah beach during the d-day invasion. listen wherever you like to get your podcasts. we'll be right back. california phones offers free specialized phones... like cordless phones,
