#Dday82
Happy #ObamaAppreciationDay, and Happy #JohnMcCainDay!

To wrap up #DDay82 loose ends, here’s excerpts from Gary Groth’s interview with #JackKirby, published in The Comics Journal #134 (February 1990). #Kirby related memories of #DDay, arriving at #Omaha Beach 10 days after the landing.

In the 1980s my Dad, a #WW2 veteran, compiled a Normandy Roll of Honour by analysing the CWGC registers manually: it took him years! Using his work these are some of the highest losses among British & Canadian units that day. These figures are for the dead only. #DDay82

Thank you to John Healey and Lord (Vernon) Coaker for your presence at DDay82 at the British Normandy Memorial. We honoured the memory of Lord Coaker’s uncle, Sgt Vernon Coaker, killed on 6 June 1944 at the age of 23, and that of all his comrades who fell under British command in the 1944 battles.

🔴 As Kegsbreath has the unadulterated cheek to parrot kremlin counterpropaganda at #DDay82 commemorations, it's important for Europe @ec.europa.eu to FULLY understand that we are now ALONE, as the White House happily works for their kremlin masters

The US led NATO is dead. A new Alliance is needed.

Hegseth shames US all by giving an incredibly disrespectful speech at the Normandy ceremony when he compared migrant boats to the Allied invasion against the Nazis.

On this 82nd D-Day anniversary, the #LACoFD remembers the thousands of Allied troops who stormed Normandy's beaches to turn the tide of WWII National D-Day Memorial. Today, we honor the courage of all who fought, those who made the ultimate sacrifice, and those who survived. 🇺🇸 #DDay82 #NeverForget

My grandfather's account (transcribed by my aunt)
#DDay

"The instinct to live is strong, but there was an even greater instinct here on the Normandy beachhead. There was an unseen force of months and years that led up to this moment. It was ‘get inland, move forward-forward."

🕊️ 6 de junio de 1944. Miles de jóvenes cruzaron el Canal de la Mancha sabiendo lo que podían encontrar al otro lado. Lo hicieron por algo más grande que ellos mismos: la libertad de pueblos que no eran el suyo. 82 años después, honramos su memoria.
