On this day 62 years ago Operation Overloard began. By June 11 1944, of the (approx) 326,000 men who had landed, (approx) 155,00 were wounded, 18,000 were missing, and 53,000 were dead. So we could all stay free.
Fly your flag for them.
And please vote smart today, because it's one of the things these men suffered for. :good

Appropriately, he passed 16 yrs ago on June 14th, Flag Day.

Definately a different sense of patriotism back then.  Bring back the old days and the old ways.

Nope, times have changed and the people that used to be heros have been replaced by whining, overpaid, drug users who call themselves "professional" athletes.
