Pinging the list again. I had meant to mention the 70th anniversary of D Day that is today. I have watched several documentaries on this incredible undertaking this past week.
Watching the Omaha Beach footage and the carnage was a very stark reminder of how costly that war was. I just want to say thanks to any of our remaining Veterans from then as well as all the wonderful people who have served since then.
It is a reminder of just how incredible things happen when we are united in purpose.

More than 4,400 killed on that first day. I once visited their hallowed burial ground and the tears simply flowed.
