70 Years Since Nazi Massacre at Oradour-sur-Glane

Hand-in-hand with one of the few survivors, German president joins Hollande in historic visit to French ghost village where Nazis massacred 642

 Francois Hollande
It may have been 70 years since the inhabitants of Oradour-sur-Glane were massacred and all homes and businesses destroyed, but here in this ghost town near Limoges, France, it is still June 10 1944.
