They did, and it wasn't just American vets there. Men from every country involved in the war were there.
We were watching Paratroopers jump into St Marygleese or something like that. Anyway there was a German Nazi soldier sitting in a wheelchair next to an American Allied soldier. They were both asked "Do you to feel bitter towards each other?" They both responded with "No, because at the time they were just soldiers doing their job. That good guy and bad guy attitude is stuff for the movies and highly innaccurate." That response humbled me.
