He didn't take place in dday but the end of his life he wanted to fuck those nazis up.

Had a 3rd cousin die early on in ww2

Every one of my dads and uncles and cousins took it all it the way up.

Fuck all the enemies of the USA

Yup

documentaries and non-fiction films about D-Day and each time I cry. How can you NOT cry?

When I visited France in 1997 we went to the beaches where the invasion occurred. I saw huge rectangular "buildings" sticking out of the ocean and I couldn't find out what they were. I even asked older men on our tour and they had no clue. That really bugged me for years. Finally, about 15 years ago I found my answer when I did my own research. They were caissons. Then I couldn't figure out how they kept these enormous man-made concrete buildings from sinking, allowing a harbor to be made. Churchill designed them early in the wars. What a genius move! They were made to last decades but a rare storm later that month destroyed them. The weather really screwed up a lot of our efforts, from D Day to the Battle of The Bulge were very damaging and delayed so much of our advances.
