Today June 6th, 1944 is the day of the largest battle in world history. The allied forces landed at Normandy, France, the invasion that has since become known to all as D-Day. A conflict that would result in the defeat of Germany less than a year later.
The purpose of this post is not to relive the battle but to celebrate those who fought, those who died and those who lived. There are not many left of those now.
If a man was 18 years old on D-Day, he would be 96 now. The members of our greatest generation are passing away, being replaced by those whose idea of difficulty is waiting outside over night to by a new IPHONE. While the World Wat II generation lived through the Great Depression and won a World War, the current one can’t take a cold shower without feeling personally violated.
Where do we go to get our greatest generation back?
Cherish our greats, we may never see their like again.
Until next time..be good or be good at it. 🇺🇸
Thank you to those who fought for us.
