D-Day

62 years ago, a force of American, British, and Canadian soldiers assaulted the beaches of Normandy, France, kicking off the campaign that would bring the end of the Nazis and their Third Reich.
A lot went wrong 62 years ago, and legion men died... men from literally all over the world. But ultimately, tenacity won the days.
Remember that our successes in the past were long fought and hard won, won by perseverance and a refusal to concede. No significant victory has ever been easy or ever will be easy, but we are better for these victories and sacrifices today. We are all better for what happened 62 years ago today.
