Every June 6th my Dad would wait till we were all at the kitchen table for breakfast and intone: "D-Day the 6th of June". It was truly his prayer for those who'd been there.

Now I say it out loud every June 6th, but also on Sept 9th for Salerno, Jan 21 for Anzio, and Aug 15th for Southern France. As M1 said - there were dozens of "D Days" in WWII.

Many men lost there lives on those days, many men suffered.

 

ALL of them must be remembered & honored!
