Through their brave sacrifices and herioc efforts, the face of freedom was eventually preserved throughout the world as the -blam!-s were slowly driven back into Germany and defeated. I'm very greateful to those brave men, not much older than I am, who were on the beach that day, taking place in what I consider to be one of the most important events in modern history. I dunno, I just felt like pointing it out. *note: this isn't meant to be a political thread in any way*[/quote] Isn't it 61 years ago?[/quote] yeah this guy cant count... ALSO it waasnt HARSH WEATHER...they waited till it WASNT bad...so i am gonna suggest you dont do a history lessen again. I completly forgot it was d-day until i saw this and looked i was like: "huh? its dday? holy -blam!- it is dday" lets have several posts of silence... (everyone just post periods which resembles silencee)(plz) ...................................... [Edited on 6/6/2005]
