There is a good series on AHC channel, Evolution of Evil on the shaping of pre war Europe and other such things.

The Greatest Generation invaded Normandy on D-Day on this date in 1944. Let's all remember the sacrifice that allows us to prosper and be the men we are today...

My grandfather was on that beach and he survived...physically at least. I know the loss he suffered just being there never left him...

Thank you for the sacrifices you made so we and the rest didnt have to!

Thanks for mentioning that, Adrian. My mother's oldest brother landed with the Big Red One in Normandy.
