This picture is of the entrance to the D-Day Memorial in Bedford, Va.
I urge all Americans to visit this some day in their life.
Bedford had the highest casuality rate of any town in respect to the Normandy invasion. The boys from Bedford, especially company A, were immortalized in the movie "Saving Private Ryan" as being the first boats onto Omaha Beach.
It is a very moving experience to visit there, especially when you see the things combat veterans leave there after visiting.
