0:00:06 > 0:00:14soldier and the toys on tour on your last Newsround of the night.
0:00:14 > 0:00:17First - a welcome home party for US Soldier Bowe Bergdahl has been
0:00:17 > 0:00:18cancelled today.
0:00:18 > 0:00:22He was set free at the weekend after five years as a prisoner
0:00:22 > 0:00:22in Afghanistan.
0:00:22 > 0:00:25But some ex-army members have since claimed he was captured by hardline
0:00:25 > 0:00:29Islamic group the Taliban only after he went missing without permission.
0:00:32 > 0:00:33That's something that carries serious punishment
0:00:33 > 0:00:35and the US army's looking into it.
0:00:35 > 0:00:43Sergeant Bergdahl's currently recovering in a German hospital.
0:00:43 > 0:00:47Next - survivors of one of the fiercest battles of World War
0:00:47 > 0:00:48II have met Prince Charles today.
0:00:48 > 0:00:52It was part of several days of celebrations to mark the 70th
0:00:52 > 0:00:55anniversary of D-Day - when thousands of troops started a major
0:00:55 > 0:00:58fight back in France that eventually led to the defeat of Nazi Germany.
0:00:58 > 0:01:01Ceremonies are taking place on both side of the Channel tomorrow
0:01:01 > 0:01:06and Nel will have two special reports from France tomorrow.
0:01:06 > 0:01:07Next to the freak June weather that's
0:01:07 > 0:01:10produced giant hailstones, tornadoes and even blown over lorries.
0:01:10 > 0:01:13It's battered parts of America but amazingly hasn't caused any
0:01:13 > 0:01:14serious injuries.
0:01:14 > 0:01:19Here's Ricky with more.
0:01:19 > 0:01:21This driver in the US state of Nebraska struggled behind
0:01:21 > 0:01:25the wheel, as their car was battered by hailstones - leaving their
0:01:25 > 0:01:25windscreen completely destroyed.
0:01:25 > 0:01:29Some of the hailstones that fell were the size of tennis balls!
0:01:29 > 0:01:31The outside of these houses were badly damaged by hail.
0:01:31 > 0:01:38The storms forced some people to hide in their basements.
0:01:38 > 0:01:45It came through like a freight train.
0:01:45 > 0:01:52It sounded like the world was coming to an end, almost.
0:01:52 > 0:01:56But it wasn't just hail causing chaos - there were powerful winds
0:01:56 > 0:01:58of up to 90 miles per hour.
0:01:58 > 0:01:59There were even a number of tornadoes
0:01:59 > 0:02:01like this one caught on camera.
0:02:01 > 0:02:05You can see a number of large trees were taken out by this storm.
0:02:05 > 0:02:07Trees were blown over, as was this lorry.
0:02:07 > 0:02:10This is just an idea of how strong these winds are and
0:02:10 > 0:02:12how much damage they're causing.
0:02:12 > 0:02:13And this video from neighbouring state, Iowa,
0:02:13 > 0:02:16appeared to show a petrol station roof being ripped off.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19Heavy rain also brought sudden flooding, and some people
0:02:19 > 0:02:21needed rescuing by lifeboats.
0:02:21 > 0:02:24The storms are now moving eastwards across the US but forecasters say
0:02:24 > 0:02:30things shouldn't be as bad.
0:02:30 > 0:02:32Finally - the chance for your favourite soft
0:02:32 > 0:02:34toys to go on holiday on their own.
0:02:34 > 0:02:36A Japanese company's started taking teddies on tours.
0:02:36 > 0:02:40They take videos of your ted at famous landmarks and upload them
0:02:40 > 0:02:42online for you to see at home.
0:02:42 > 0:02:46So far they've taken more than 400 toys on adventures.
0:02:46 > 0:02:49More on that on the website plus you can check
0:02:49 > 0:02:52out this year's fattest pets too.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55That's all from me, I'm back right here tomorrow morning from 7.40.
0:02:55 > 0:03:00Bye for now.
