The Greatest Generation did not ask for applause. They asked for victory. Then they came home, built families, businesses, churches, neighborhoods, and the strongest nation on earth. That is why D-Day still matters. It shows what America was when duty outranked comfort, when patriotism was normal, when men understood sacrifice, and when civilization knew evil had to be defeated rather than negotiated with, excused, or psychologically analyzed. Reagan’s Pointe du Hoc speech remains the gold standard because he understood the sacred math: young men gave up all their tomorrows so free people could inherit theirs. Remember them. Honor them. Be worthy.

God bless the Greatest Generation. My uncle was in before the First Wave as a signal operator scouting for Nazi’s before the landing. He was terrified and I am so lucky I had him so I could learn all about it.

Thank you to Luthmann for highlighting Roger Stone historical importance, herein. Roger Stone's analysis is borderline genius because it connects the lessons of D-Day to the challenges facing America today. He reminds us that the Greatest Generation did not inherit freedom—they fought, bled, and died to preserve it. By highlighting the courage, sacrifice, and patriotism of those ordinary Americans who stormed Normandy, Stone underscores a timeless truth: freedom survives only when citizens are willing to defend it. His perspective serves as a powerful reminder that national strength, unity, and vigilance remain essential to preserving the civilization those heroes saved.

Ooh-rah. Well said.

Just sharing -In the modern world of American politics, many do not understand the importance of prioritizing, or even how to prioritize, especially progressives.

Risky, costly, but successful.

Nowadays, the fact that Steven Feinberg's plot to arm Israel with nuclear-powered submarines seems to be the most important issue for "America-first" Trump, not the golf courses at an Air Force base or the fountains in DC. Unless, of course, it is "Trump first, America second", and I am believing just that, as are the members of Congress.
