barely a footnote! Nothing on the news, nothing on the radio.....newspaper had mentioned it on page 10! How quickly we forget....what a shame!

Most people have no clue what today is

I don't know why, but a couple dates stick in my head.....June 6th 1944 and December 7th 1941! Days that should not be forgotten!

it would appear that with the current losses of soldiers in Iraq and afghanistan being the highest ever...14 guys last weekend alone, focus has shifted off of the past to the present with tensions rising over Iran, Russia, North korea....Nigeria and on and on it goes ...that combined
with the political debates.... the D- Day rememberance wasn't top billing.

we just have deployed lazer capable drones over all major airports to shoot down shoulder fired missles and thwart other terrorist attempts of sabotage. It's a sign of the times we live in I guess.

I think I'll pop in Saving Private Ryan,have a few frosties,and be thankful for the bravery of our dads and granddads.
