"You are about to embark upon the great crusade toward which we have striven these many months. The eyes of the world are upon you...I have full confidence in your courage, devotion to duty and skill in battle." - General Eisenhower just before the execution of Operation Overlord
June 6th, 1944 65 years ago today, so many of our own troops along with our allies gave the ultimate sacrifice in defense of freedom. Normandy still holds many of the troops that did not return.
I'll be flying my flag today in memory of this day and what it stands for. Hopefully my neighbors will join me.
