As the years go by, we seem to remember less and less about the hero’s that fell that day in Normandy to keep the Free World Free. It’s a similar struggle today, but it seems our will was greater back then in total. While it is popular to diss the current war on Terrorism, in one day 10,000 lives were given by many on the foreign soil on the coast of France, 2.5 times more than the 7 year war in the Iraq/Afganistan…think about it. And we are now fighting to keep the nukes out of the hands of fanatics who can’t want to die, and take others with them. We should fight with the tenacity of D-Day.

Here is the round up.

Jennifer Rubin of Commentary - who mentions that the Battle of the Bulge lost 19,000.

Michelle Malkin posts Ronald Reagans speech and how our loser/quitter/slanted media would cover it today.

Atlas Shrugs posts the actual letter from the Supreme Headquarters note on D-Day.

Roundup Coverage from Stop the ACLU.

Blackfive has the President’s D-Day Prayer.
