Today marks the 82nd anniversary of D-Day!

The morning of June 6, 1944 marked one of the largest amphibious military assaults the world had ever seen. More than 160,000 American, British and Canadian troops battled their way along a 50-mile stretch of beach in Normandy, France to give the Allies a foothold in Nazi-occupied western Europe and a path to victory in World War II.

The day has become famous for its nickname, "D-Day," though few people are aware of what the "D" stands for. U.S. Commander Gen. David Eisenhower later clarified its meaning, writing in 1964 that "any amphibious operation has a departed date; therefore, the shortened term D-Day is used."

Therefore, there were of a number of "D Days" during WWII with the landing on the beaches of Normandy being one of the most notable.

Today we remember those who sacrificed their lives and limbs including my dad during this campaign and honor those few who may remain with us today! ~Thank you!
