Fascinating. Always so amazing to see documents like this. Know what they were actually thinking at the time. Such intense responsibility. All those lives on Ike's shoulders. #DDay

Why is it called D-DY? Day of demarcation, correct? I've heard different opinions. Some say it's meaningless and I have a hard time believing a name given has no significance.

We all honor your father. He and many other Brave men did the world an enormous favor in those years so long ago now.

The historic immensity of the events surrounding June 6, 1944 are beyond the grasp of all but the most informed humans. There has been nothing approaching its importance since.

President Trump, 1944 on D Day landings: It was the biggest success ever. We lost no men, believe me. Fake News will say some died... but we know, am I right? Today I also ending the unfair lend-lease act. Terrible for us. Father Coughlin and Friends says I’m great. Nice!

Knowledgeable and able to think- not a reactionary. I miss leaders who are problem solvers.
