D-Day 79th Anniversary
On this, the 79th anniversary of D-Day, I thought I’d share some photos from our recent trip to the National D-Day Memorial. As we have fewer and fewer World War II Veterans left, it’s up to us to make sure their legacy lives on. As Winston Churchill famously said, “Those that fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.” May we never forget the lessons learned and the people who fought so bravely to free the world from tyranny.
