D-Day

On this day in 1944- the Allied forces went ashore at Normandy. The Longest Day, Saving Private Ryan, and Band of Brothers all give the Hollywood version of that day.

My cousin's neighbor was there, and a couple of years ago, I was able to talk to him about what he had experienced.

He passed away not too long ago... Many of the heros from that day are gone. But I wanted to make sure to say THANK YOU for their sacrifice. Those young men and women did nothing less than save the world.
