You betcha! I never forget, but it's nice to be reminded. I never forget Henry O. Pierce. A cousin. U.S. Army. Captured on Bataan, and survived the death march and 3 1/2 years as a POW.

No Dice,

Thank you for reminding us all of the importance of this day. :applause:
 
The darkness will be rent by noise and flame. Men's souls will be shaken with the violences of war. For these men are lately drawn from the ways of peace. They fight not for the lust of conquest. They fight to end conquest. They fight to liberate. They fight to let justice arise, and tolerance and goodwill among all Thy people. They yearn but for the end of battle, for their return to the haven of home. Some will never return. Embrace these, Father, and receive them, Thy heroic servants, into Thy kingdom.”
― Franklin D. Roosevelt

I will always remember this day as i'm named after my uncle who was killed on Omaha beach. He was 17 and had a whole life ahead of him. Cut short so that we can others can be free. Let us never forget ALL those who gave their all for us. Regards,Scott
