Today marks the 63rd anniversary of the Allied Normandy invasion. Please, a moment of thought for those heroes who made the ultimate sacrifice in the name of freedom.

Funny, this year, it doesn't seem to be as hot a topic as it has in the past.

Why complain about a chance to salute those who died for our country, and especially to those who lived to march further into enemy territory?

I don't think anyone is complaining.

Agreed.

I will watch the first 20 minutes of Saving Private Ryan and then put on The Longest Day. The latter I have done for years.
