I always remember this day. My fathers generation gave everything to keep us free and free France and Europe from the mad men of the day. Apparently the French do not totally hate us as they elected a president that wants much closer relations with the US. The French people still remember all the troops coming ashore and driving Hitler out. I wonder if the yourger French people have a clue what really happened.

Not to forget the other men who served in WWII, let us remember those who served and died or survived around the world in WWII. My father in law served in the Navy and drove a landing craft in the first wave at both Guadalcanal and Okinawa. He was happy to be in the first wave on the beach as he considered it much safer than the later waves when the Japanese were up and fighting.
