“Your task will not be an easy one. Your enemy is well trained, well equipped, and battle-hardened.” — Dwight D. Eisenhower
Eighty-two years ago today, on June 6, 1944, more than 156,000 Allied troops stormed the beaches of Normandy, France, in the largest amphibious invasion in military history.
D-Day marked the beginning of the end of World War II in Europe and demonstrated extraordinary courage, unity, and sacrifice. These warriors left behind their homes, families, and comforts to confront tyranny abroad. Their service reminds us that freedom comes at a great cost.
Today, we honor their memory.
We reflect on their legacy.
And we remain steadfast in our duty to carry it forward. 🇺🇲
