On June 6, 1944, young men stepped into the unknown and onto the beaches of Normandy. Many never came home.

D-Day was more than a military operation—it was a battle against one of history’s greatest evils and a turning point in the fight for freedom.
Today, we honor the courage, sacrifice, and selflessness of those who answered the call. Their legacy reminds us that liberty is never free and that each generation has a responsibility to defend it.
We remember the fallen. We honor the survivors. We give thanks for the heroes of D-Day.
