I am watching the "winds of War" in honor thereof. If any of you out there have not had the opportunity to watch this series or better yet read the book (by Herman Wouk)you are missing one of the finest historical(emphasis on historical) fiction novels ever published. If this subject matter means something to you I think you might gain a whole new perspective on the events that led up to and finally concluded WWII.
No one cares this is the anniversary?

I kept thinking all day that someone else would do this.
There was a lot of blood left on the beaches in France this day 60 years ago so Europe would be free from oppression.
There was a special this morning on History Channel, where one survivor, barely 17 years old that day tearfully described his fallen comrades and his realization that he narrowly escaped death.
We owe these soldiers, living and dead, a debt of gratitude.
