Jack Port and Gérard Medaisko met for the first time yesterday in Deauville. 72 years after D-Day. Complicity. When you see these two men chatting on the terrace of the Barrière New Golf Club in Deauville, that’s what you immediately notice. One is French, the other American. Long-time friends? Well, not really. In fact, Gérard Medaisko and Jack Port have only just met. And yet they have a lot to talk about. What do they have in common? They both landed on the beaches of Normandy on 6 June 1944. The first at Juno Beach, the second at Utah Beach.
