Let us remember those young soldiers who changed the course of history with their sacrifice. Let us commit ourselves to remembering their sacrifice by cherishing the freedom they bought for all generations that follow. Honored by Laurent Lefebvre [April 29, 2024] |

I was watching the History Channel and they are showing the D-Day invasion. My Mom had talked about her brother George who died on D-Day her family never knew where he was buried. It was such a comfort to see his cemetery cross. All the family knew was that he was blown up on the beach.Thanks so muc Honored by Cathy Dydynski [2015-06-07 03:08:23] |
