US war vet, 100, to marry sweetheart, 96

US Air Force veteran Terens will be honored on June 6 at a commemoration of the 80th anniversary of the D-Day landings in Normandy, the historic Allied operation that changed the course of the war.

Two days later Harold and Jeanne will exchange vows in Carentan-les-Marais, close to the beaches where thousands of soldiers waded ashore - and many died - that day in 1944. The town's mayor will preside over the ceremony.

"It's a love story like you've never heard before," Terens assures Agence France-Presse.

During an interview at Swerlin's home in Boca Raton, Florida, they exchange glances, hold hands and smooch like teenagers.
