Remembering D-Day And The Greatest Generation

Looks like a great movie starring a patriotic celeb and a great tribute to the generation we should be emulating at this time. I just caught Tom Selleck on FoxNews and he said "In Time Of War, We All Should Support The Troops And The President" because "The Terrorists Are Watching Us"

Ike: Countdown to D-Day

Monday, May 31 at 8:00 PM ET
A&E

The film opens in March of 1944, just three months prior to D-Day, as General Eisenhower persuades Winston Churchill to make him the supreme commander of the coming assault on Hitler's European torture. As D-Day draws near, Eisenhower deals with the politics of war and it becomes clear that his power is his greatest burden, yet also his undeniable destiny. Eisenhower's true leadership is exemplified throughout the film as he prepares to send legions of young soldiers into the path of evil to fight the most infamous and significant battle of WWII. Tom Selleck stars as Ike.
