I have long said...
That June 6, 1944 was probably the single most importiant day in the 20th century. There was so much riding on the outcome of that day and those that followed that it's almost untathomable what could/would have happened had it failed.
I have been working nights the past three weeks and last night around 3:00am I couldn't help but think of the boys riding across the change in their C47's waiting to jump. I got kinda choked up and said a little prayer of thanks to all of them.
