D-Day 75 Years Later


June 6, 1944 Normandy, Nazi Occupied France
Brave Americans Fight to Liberate Europe from National Socialist (Nazi) Tyranny
1962 Movie
I am grateful to God that he used brave American soldiers to liberate Europe from National Socialist (Nazi) tyranny. My dad didn't fight in the European Theater, but the Pacific. He was in the Army Air Corps and shot down during a sortie over Burma. He never talked about the war or the jagged scar to his back. But when he took me to see the movie, "The Longest Day," he couldn't stop admiring the bravery of those who stormed the beaches, climbed Pointe du Hoc, or jumped behind enemy lines in the early morning hours before dawn. I didn't appreciate what they accomplished then. Now that Socialists threaten to complete the transformation of America into something God never intended her to be, I wonder if there are any brave souls left in our nation who will fight against socialist tyranny.

I appreciate how General Dwight D. Eisenhower (34th President) demonstrated true leadership when he encouraged faithfulness to our nation speaking with the paratroopers who would be the first to strike National Socialist (Nazi) tyranny.

I know many other nations sacrificed their native sons on that horrible, yet victorious day for liberty. But I sincerely hope we will remember what these brave soldiers did to secure liberty for ourselves and our posterity 75 years ago, June 6, 1944.

Brave Americans All
In fairness to these brave souls, will America continue to be blessed by Almighty God and remain the home of the free?

If we and our posterity reject religious instruction and authority, violate the rules of eternal justice, trifle with the injunctions of morality, and recklessly destroy the political constitution which holds us together, no man can tell how sudden a catastrophe may overwhelm us that shall bury all our glory in profound obscurity.
Daniel Webster
