Anniversary
Today is the 66th Anniversary of D-Day, where American, British, and Canadian troops first came ashore to liberate the continent and fulfil their promise.
At this time on D-Day, things were not looking good.
We stayed the course, and persevered.
There is a lesson there, I believe.
If you have WWII vets in your family, please call them today and say, "Thank You. Your service and sacrifice are not forgotten."
There are not many left.
Or just thank any vet for his service.
Thanks, brothers!

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat." - President Theodore Roosevelt, 1910
