OK, a tip of the hat to Burns for including all the “thanksgiving”
observances as news of D-Day spread in the USA.
And even the religious services got acknowleged.

Wow....
Burns even included FDR’s “imprecatory” (sp?) D-Day Prayer.
I wonder who at “Florentine Films” went to bat to air FDR’s voice
intoning “Almighty G-d,...”.

This was my first night watching it, and I thought it was done rather well. Very stirring and stunning images and accounts. I am surprised PBS didn’t make him edit out all references to “the Japs”.
