• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

June 6, 1944

For our fallen brothers and sisters.

It's raining here today
tears from Heaven
and rolling thunder

Angels on our shoulders
carry on, carry on, they say
the world is still imperfect

What sacrifice, and bravery
that last measure of devotion
is not forgotten

Imagine the world
without that day...
we owe them at least that

It could have been yesterday
it could have been tommorrow
it could have been you, or I
 
Phenozo -

Most people today would barely know the significance of this date. Unfortunately, many/most of the current generation wouldn't know what you'd be describing at all.. the best one might get is.. "Oh, you mean like Pvt. Ryan?"

If not for the extraordinary sacrifice of those ordinary men..think of how frightening
"civilization" would be today.

God Bless our vets..
June 6th is one the most important dates in Our history, and I do realize most of the "younger generation" don't have a Clue..
But as long as History continues, I do pray, we the allies Never Forget..

BRAVO.. to all who fought and died for our freedoms..
:salute::salute::salute::salute::salute:
 
Just to add my Amen.

It is amazing what the younger generation (by which I mean 25 and younger) doesn't know.

They are aware of a great many things, but they don't KNOW anything.
Life seems to them a great blur of MTV-like images leaving them with only impressions without any substance.

End of rant.
