No one cares this is the anniversary?

I kept thinking all day that someone else would do this.

There was a lot of blood left on the beaches in France this day 60 years ago so Europe would be free from oppression.

There was a special this morning on History Channel, where one survivor, barely 17 years old that day tearfully described his fallen comrades and his realization that he narrowly escaped death.

We owe these soldiers, living and dead, a debt of gratitude.

During Tom Brokaw's interview with George W. last night Brokaw stated that, American WW2 vets are dying at the rate of 1000 a day. Soon all memories of this war will be 2nd hand. It was weird seeing Bush with Chirac commemorating our WW2 efforts. Too young for Viet Nam. Too old for Persian Gulf. I do appreciate greatly the sacrifice these men made and cherish their legacy. Although I have a problem with our current leadership and ongoing war I never lose sight of the great privelege it is to live in a free society.
