Great post.

My daughter was on the beaches on the 60th anniversary when she was 17 - and it touched her deeply. I told her to be there on that day was a cooler combination of time/place than I’ve ever experienced.

Thank you for remembering. I consider myself very fortunate to have visited the beaches of Normandy in 2006. My first exposure to D-Day was going to the theater with my mother to see “The Longest Day.” I was 15 at the time.

Where my Dad was at, 71 years ago today, aboard the USS Doyle on D-Day, June 6, 1944. The link to the following article, "64 Hours of Battle", was published in "Yank" magazine on June 19, 1944, and recounts the Omaha Beach landing and the action my Dad's ship took during the battle. He was only 18 years old at the time...
