On June 6, 1944, a bunch of people engaged in an epic battle for the ages. It was the beginning of the end of World War Two in Europe; the day that the horrors of the Holocaust came one day closer to ending. We remember that date for history exams that we take in school. Fortunately for me, I get to meet people that took part in it. In my own family, I had a distant relation that was wounded coming ashore at Omaha Beach. I have linked to this video before, but I think it’s really worth watching.
