Galmey VFW POST 9638 Auxiliary

06/06/2026

Today, we pause to remember and honor the brave men who stormed the beaches of Normandy on June 6, 1944 — a day forever known as D-Day.

More than 150,000 Allied troops took part in one of the largest military operations in history during World War II. Facing unimaginable danger, these courageous soldiers fought to begin the liberation of Europe from tyranny and oppression. Many never made it home, while countless others carried the memories of that day for the rest of their lives.

D-Day was more than a military victory — it was a turning point in history and a powerful reminder of the price of freedom. The sacrifices made by the “Greatest Generation” continue to inspire us today.

As we commemorate this anniversary, let us never forget the courage, sacrifice, and unwavering determination of those who served. We honor the heroes who gave so much so future generations could live in freedom.

Memorial Day, originally known as Decoration Day, began after the Civil War as a way to honor those who died in military service. It became an official federal holiday in 1971 and is now observed on the last Monday in May.
This day is a time to remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice to defend our nation and its freedoms.
At the Galmey Post 9638 VFW and Auxiliary, we solemnly honor their memory. We stand with the families who have lost loved ones, and we vow to never forget the cost of our freedom.
All gave some. Some gave all.
Take a moment today to pause, reflect, and remember those who laid down their lives so we could live in peace. Heavenly Father; Today we remember with heavy hearts the heroes who gave their lives for our country. May their sacrifice never be in vain, and may their memory inspire us to live with purpose, gratitude and unity. Bless their families with comfort and peace, and watch over those still serving in harm's way. Amen
