However, Florent Neveur — boss of La Falaise crêperie in Vierville-sur-Mer, next to Omaha Beach, called Ms Brooks’ claims “completely false”.

He added: “Everybody is welcome, especially those in the military.

“It is an absolute disgrace that someone is trying to destroy our business by making up these kind of claims.”
