Remembering D-Day

6/5/2015

0 Comments

 
The Battle of Midway, D-Day, the 6 Day War. The list of conflicts that occurred on or around this time throughout history is almost endless. The weather has improved enough in most places to begin a campaign or expand one already begun. Wars of the past depended greatly on the weather. D-Day was one such conflict that was based in large part on weather predictions. With the D-Day anniversary tomorrow, June 6th, the remembrances, ceremonies, tours, etc, around the world are more numerous than we could ever hope to list here. What we can do is share some websites devoted to those who took part in the D-Day invasion, also known as Operation Overlord. 

"Soldiers, Sailors and Airmen of Allied Expeditionary Force ! You are about to embark upon the Great crusade, toward which we have striven these many months. The eyes of the world are upon you. The hopes and prayers of liberty-loving people everywhere march with you... I have full confidence in your courage and devotion to duty and skill in battle. We will accept nothing less than full Victory !" Dwight D. Eisenhower

D-Day Museum and Overlord Embroidery    Portsmouth’s D-Day Museum is Britain’s only museum dedicated solely to covering all aspects of the D-Day landings in Normandy, France, on 6 June 1944.     (http://www.ddaymuseum.co.uk/)


While it might be a little late to head to France for the many tours and ceremonies, hopefully you can find an event near you to participate in the remembrances. ~Michael S. Pauley
