D Day

I'm trying to forget, It was Bush's fault to begin with!

I've seen it mentioned in a few different places, but since it's the 66th (i.e. not a round number) anniversary this year, I guess we shouldn't have expected too much. Next year will be the 70th anniversary of Pearl Harbor, followed by the 70th anniversary of every major WWII event during the next four years after that, so we should be hearing a lot about the war in the near future.

If it's forgotten then it's because our educational system and it's textbooks allow it to happen. The ones that are truly forgotten are the ones, many of them, that died in prep for D-Day. You don't hear much about that though but to forget the troops that did fight in D-Day is, well, unforgivable.

I can't speak for anyone else but for my part I'm very much in appreciation to my father's generation.
