There was an elderly man named Desmond Finnegan who I was blessed to become very close with after moving into my new home. He was an amazing friend always willing to help anyone in need. As I grew to know him, he opened up about his service in the US Army. He was part of the assault wave on Omaha Beach. He told me of the hail of lead and steel raining down on the beach and especially the cacophony of noise. Desmond was on the beach for roughly an hour when an artillery shell landed near him. He recalls flying up in the air and then nothing. He woke up 6 months later in a hospital in the United States. He had been in a coma for 6 months.he did not know his parents or who he was. It took him 10 years to fully recovery from his brain injury and regain his memory. He passed away in 2012 and I’m in tears as I write this as he was like a second father to me after my dad had passed. God Bless our Greatest Generation. Semper Fidelis 🇺🇸

Odd isn't it: Women get a day; men get a day; veterans get a day. Homosexuals get a month and, in the UK at least, Blacks get a month ('Black History Month.'). As things stand the most 'celebrated and commemorated' people in our community have such honour bestowed upon them (a). for a characteristic they cannot control and (b). for a sexual preference; (c). Both of the above. Of the above groups veterans are the only body who have, through their own individual efforts and not through fate alone, actually earned their status and merit praise, celebration and commemoration. Why not give them two months then??

I listened to the BBC news yesterday morning. They were, naturally, full of the D-Day commemorations. However, I could not help but notice that the newsreader referred to the fact that we were commemorating "all of the people who fought on the beach that day." Note the word 'people' and not 'men.' By such subtle - and unsubtle - methods is history gradually redrawn so as to fit a modern sensibility. Truth must be bulldozered out of the way lest it offend. Ben Milligan's book stands as one of the many memorials to the efforts of the men who fought on that day. Let us all try to preserve the accurate record and carry on telling not only the story, but the true, unvarnished, story.

Im from Southern England & I was homeschooled for a lot of my youth & I used to speak to a lot of WWII Vertrains & learnt more from them than in an actual classroom The local newspaper also used to give away Free DVDs which had documentaries about WWII, at that time people seem to appreciate elders better & understood history not now Those vertrains have sadly passed on & the youth of today are cold, selfish & worst of all naive. In Southern England alone nearly half of under 16s don't know what D-Day is Which is tragic beyond belief In 2010 there were about 30,000 vetrains & people who contributed to the war effort (In the factories, delivering food, making propaganda films etc) Now there's about 100 & within a decade they'll probably all be dead There's a film called a Foriegn Field produced & starring Sir Alec Guinness which follows him & 3 friends going to commentate the 50th anniversary of D-Day It's a beautiful piece & besides Babe & one or two small parts in TV movies was the last thing Guinness did before passing on in 2000 but its a brilliant one & shows we need to all be united to conquer evil

We should be in the libraries, reading stories and newspapers, and speaking with those who have experienced history.

My grandfather, Philip, joined up in '39 and fought through until VE Day. He ended as Captain in the Beds & Herts regiment and fought in France, Italy, Africa and finally Greece. He fought through the ruins at Monte Casino and lost an eye on the very last day of the war when a shell landed in the street as he had his morning smoke. If he could have seen into the future and had a glimpse of UK towns and cities today, I wonder if he and his brothers would have taken even 3 steps down the dock towards Europe in the first place?

Once a few days after June 6. He later fought in Korea and was a helicopter mechanic in Vietnam. He died in 1993, and never made it to the 50th anniversary. In the 80s he met a German man who was also at D-Day fighting for the other side, and was wounded the same day. They joked in saying they could have shot each other.

@@johncurtis6815 So, the question is after nearly 80 years of the Allies victory over Germany.... Are we better for having won? The U.S. has remained at war almost nonstop or used military police action on Libya, Syria, Iraq, Panama, Jordan, Afghanistan, Vietnam, Korea and have bases all around the world, surrounding Russia and Iran. Destabilizing South American Governments and installed puppets. The US is trillions of dollars in debt. People are more concerned about the Super Bowl, pop stars, Hollywood movies, and those useless kardashian whores than government corruption. Most people don't have savings. Unsecured debt is rampant. Health care is mandatory insurance, nothing more. As of 2016, ScienceDaily reported an estimated 27 million people are on anti-depressants, a 400% increase since the mid 90’s. Lord knows what it is at now. We actively helped, created and aided Al Qaeda. Now we have ISIS, a group that seems to be extremely lucky capturing airdrops of arms and ammunition dropped for our “ friends." They are extremely adept at social media and recruiting British teenagers. It’s has been proven that the US imports drugs. How many millions of people have died or suffered as a result of military action or economic sanctions? The U.S. education system is a farce and creates debt for jobs that don't exist and cannot be discharged. All I can say is, thank god Hitler wasn't successful at defeating (((international banksterism))) or we couldn't enjoy the benefits of a fiat currency, high crime, the current muslim migrant crisis plaguing Europe; communism's reign of terror throughout Eastern Europe, China and elsewhere post-war; the seemingly endless wars for oil in the Middle East, the international banking cartels' system of debt driving usury, forced multiculturalism, a completely degenerate entertainment industry, the lgtbq agenda sexually indoctrinating our children with things like drag queen story hour and “desmond is amazing", the COVID crisis and subsequent lockdowns and waves of deaths from the forced vaccinations, a diminishing white population, the UN, The W.E.F, the E.U., off the wall racial tension, black lives matter, antifa, 3rd wave feminism undermining the traditional family, and a complete loss of manufacturing which was outsourced to China. Shell corporations and offshore incorporation to avoid paying taxes. Having to basically write a blank check to the Federal Reserve, a private jewish-owned banking consortium, so financiers could get bonuses and bail out foreign banks. How about unconditionally supporting a small country without a constitution, against the interests of American citizens, financing an openly racist, rogue and apartheid state that destroys homes and builds walls around people. All the while said country's lobbyists continue to support and encourage immigration throughout the U.S, Canada and Europe, while they push African immigrants into tent cities and use racial epitaphs calling for them to be deported. On top of a looming nuclear WW3 via the Ukraine conflict with Russia, and now israel going hardcore on the gaza strip. How are you enjoying the current economic downfall under Biden btw? I find it astounding that Hitler was all those terrible things claimed he was, yet all our politicians (that includes alleged heroes like churchill, roosevelt and eisenhower) and bankers, in comparison, have done just as worse or even exceeded what Hitler was blamed for in these last 70 years. After all, we are for “democracy" and a "free market" economy. That makes all of our actions right and acceptable to history and the eyes of the lord? Ever notice there is no shortage of Hitlers? Assad, Idi Amin, Saddam, Osama, Putin, Qaddafi, even Bush and Trump, depending on the perspective.. That’s just the short list. Who would we be as a people without a Hitler to destroy? Who could we save? Our Politicians and other group collectives like leftist antifa need a Hitler (a false personification of evil) like we need food and water. Hard to imagine what our world would have looked like had that supposed "monster" won. We can thank our lucky stars we saved ourselves from that monstrous scourge to ensure a small amount of people can maximize profits and plunge entire nations into a debt that can never be paid. It's a safe bet to say that every problem currently plaguing our world is not in spite of the Allied victory, but the direct down-the-road RESULT of it! And frankly, the sense of patriotism you all feel from it is nothing but a sad, pathetic joke. Who won? The Jewish Bankers. The most insidiously evil people on the planet and they are still playing the game. What did we learn? The bankers, zionist jews and their paid for politicians will wage war and destruction on any nation that challenges their fiat currency shell game and make them an anathema to the world, just as they've done to Germany. Who's next? I venture to say it is going to be the US. Once that country has been thoroughly subverted and used up what will become of you? I find it truly astounding though, that all these rootin' tootin' patriot 'muricans and brits (the kind who bray about muh freedom) can't put the pieces of this puzzle together and see all of this, with all the braying they love to do about "critical/free thinking" and addressing the problems of the world, they nonetheless possess the highest levels of cognitive dissonance because they still naively believe in the biggest lie of the 20th Century, that being the nobility of the Allied victory of WW2. The allies frankly behaved appallingly, and today we're seeing the fruits of that war. Sorry, but the short term affluence experienced in the 1950's and first half of the 60s hasn't counted for much in retrospect, the damage was done. If we can call a victory over Germany in light of what has transpired after the last 70 years, what did we gain? Has our world really become a better place? (Looks around) Doesn't look like it to me. And anyone who thinks that it did is simply put, deluding themselves.
