On this day 78 years ago, the largest invasion force in history launched from the south of England. May we never forget the valor of these young men who in the middle of the night parachuted into occupied France, joined in the grey dawn of morning by 132,715 of their comrades-in-arms, along with medics, doctors, nurses and every other essential element in the Big Picture that was that Big Day.
Thank you for another poignant reminder of the incredible actions and sacrifices of those before us. I was proud to serve in the small capacity I did and would do it again then and now.

Excellent article. We have family there and love the area and history and how much the Americans have been remembered for their service in England.
I pray if the need ever comes to do the same in America we would serve immediately.
Blessings to you & your family.
