D-Day

By the way...before the 6th becomes the 7th...take a moment and reflect on how the world changed when thousands of young men didn't reflect on their own desires, but instead stormed the beaches of a land far away to defeat a man who had decided that war was a viable option for venting his hatred. At Normandy, the world changed.

To those that gave their lives...and to those who survived and lived lives of honor; thank you. The world was changed by your sacrifice and by your determination. May this new generation learn from you before it is too late.

It is a truly disturbing thought to me that my son will likely never actually know anyone who was alive and served during the Second World War.
