June 6th, 1944

72 years ago on a cold June 6th morning thousands of American, English and Canadian troops helped their peers become known as greatest generation in history. They waded ashore through heavy fire and mines to eventually get a foothold on the beach. No one can imagine the fear, the apprehension and adrenalin coursing through their veins as the Germans held the high ground over the beach. 2500 brave souls died on the beach that morning and thousands were wounded and evacuat...ed. Our lives today reflect the freedom earned through their defiant courage. Over 10,000 Americans are buried on Normandy's shore and each year although the number is dwindling, survivors in their 90's come to pay tribute to their interned comrades. As Churchill once said of the RAF, "We owe so much to so few." We certainly would not have the freedoms of today without the extreme sacrifice of yesterday.
