This day of days

We remember these men, many of them boys when the day started, who waded through the surf, who scaled bluffs, who killed and were killed, whose bravery began the lifting of the Nazi boot from the neck of Europe.

Once numerous, these men are now few and bent with the weight of years and memories.  Cherish those who are left and mourn each who passes.  Remember their acts, the bravery and the sacrifices, that freed a continent and brought down a tyrant.

God Bless them all.
