There's good news tonight about love and honor, and the World War II vet who returned to Normandy this week for the wedding of his dreams. In Normandy, not just a commemoration, but here, a celebration. Harold Terence, a World War II veteran, marrying the love of his life.

This is probably the most exciting time I've ever had in a hundred years. Of my life. You know, love is not only for the young. We still get butterflies.

Terrence proposed to 96-year-old Jeanie Swirling last year. All right, come on, Nudie, where it's time to get you on this aircraft. The start of their journey in more ways than one. Harold, why choose Normandy to get married?

I'm an emotional guy, and I came to invite the 9,836 kids that are buried on Omaha Beach, and I want them to know that they'll never be forgotten. And that's one of the reasons I'd come back.

Harold was just 20 years old and an army the Air Force's corporal when he went to Normandy to help transport newly freed American POWs to England in the aftermath of D-Day. Now, eight decades later, he's returned with his bride and their families. For a moment, years in the making. I now connoce you, my wife. Plenty of room for romance and a toast or two, including from global leaders. Yes, those are the newlyweds invited to last night's state dinner with President Biden and McCro. But even on the world stage, there may be no alliance more powerful than this one.

I didn't know what love really was until I met him. I used to think Romeo and Juliet was the greatest love story. I think our love story is the greatest love story ever. The best is yet to come.

The happy couple is now enjoying their honeymoon in Paris. We wish them all the best. Thanks for watching. Stay updated about breaking news and top stories top stories on the NBC News app or follow us on social media.
