Found here, this peaceful photo is of a very important place on this 6th day of June 2008. In truth, it's an important place any and every day of every year. This is Normandy Beach. On this shore many, many valiant young men gave their all to secure freedom for so many others. I am among those others. Words cannot express my gratitude to those who landed on this and other beaches in France in 1944. D-Day. The beginning of Operation Overlord.My father-in-law came in D-Day plus five. He spoke little of what he saw. What he did say was explanation enough to know why.
On this day I honor those young men who did what needed to be done 64 years ago today.
