D-Day - 65 Years Later



Such a beautiful, peaceful place. I was there two years ago, and I am still humbled when I look at the photos from this small stretch of land. Omaha Beach, June 6, 1944. Amazing to fathom the courage, the inner strength those men must have had on that long day 65 years ago when they were faced with such a formidable task.

I hope the lessons that were learned, and the blood that was shed hasn’t been completely forgotten. Such a terrific price was paid for the freedom of the free world. I am thankful everyday for the courage and valor those men showed so long ago.
