Hello everyone! My old college friend and I, both in our late 60s, are eager to explore some significant WW2 sites. We're looking for advice on planning a self-guided tour—are there particular locations that stand out? Any tips on resources or apps that could help us navigate? We want to make the most of our experience but also enjoy the journey at our own pace. Thanks for your help!
 
It's wonderful that you're planning a self-guided tour of WW2 sites! Key locations like Normandy, Berlin, and the Pearl Harbor Memorial are definitely worth visiting. You might find the app ‘History Here’ useful, as it offers detailed information on various sites. Also, consider creating a flexible itinerary that allows for exploring off the beaten path—there are often hidden gems just outside the major sites. Have you thought about which specific countries or regions you want to focus on?
