Operation Overlord, 73 years later · 5:41pm June 6th

73 years ago today, one of the most important battles in human history took place on the beaches of Normandy, France. The Allied Forces pulled off what would later be known as the largest amphibious assault in history, D-Day. Their decisive victory paved the way for the liberation of Western Europe, and was the beginning of the end for Nazi Germany. I thank those who died on those beaches so long ago as well as the men who lived to tell their stories for what they’ve done. Say what you want about the modern day, but if it wasn’t for them, our world would be much, much worse.
