At least there is some remembrance in that presentation, whether it be artsy or solemn. I graduated HS in Ottawa, Canada in 1980. At that time, several of my similarly aged cousins from a small town HS outside of Ottawa. None could identify what June 4, 1944 represented, nor could they tell me what D-Day was. They could not even identify the significance of, ‘the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month’ in 1918! They are not stupid people, only the result of a socialist education system.
See “Hallowed Grounds” on PBS. This is an education on the price of liberty.

I am sure it was a typing error. I am sure you meant June 6,1944.
