        My dad’s two cousins (brothers), too. Then they “took a walk through Europe.” They both make it back.

        Most Americans don't comprehend the importance of D-Day, let alone the immense sacrifice. I never see images from Omaha Beach that my breath doesn't catch.

        Maybe this photo will remind the American Embassy spokes-model in Germany what D-day was all about.

        It was a joke after State spox made ridiculous statements this week about Germany as if they were our ally during D-Day.https://twitter.com/steveschmidtses/status/1004599027609014272?s=21 …

        There are no words. Watch Maddow at her best patiently explaining to the State Dept spokesperson that it was the Germans we were fighting on DDay https://twitter.com/maddowblog/status/1004542127978811392 …

        Sadly most Americans never learned about bloody battles, other than Bulge, that lay ahead: hedgerows, breakout, Market-Garden, and worst of: Huertgen Forest. Poor decisions, low supplies killed thousands.
