Max, a 14-15 yr old young man came over our Bridge today

He looked at the Banner, & I asked him if he knew what D-Day was

When he told me he didn't

I explained about our troops storming the beachhead of Normandy, & the loss of lives of our Soldiers, in the battle on that beach

More importantly, I explained, that our soldiers never gave up, going on to take that Beach, which proved to be the 'Turning of the Tide' in World War 2, & our ultimate victory for the freedom of America & Countries around the world

Now I know many 'cabal things' about the history of this war, that are different than most depict, but for today, this is what Max needed to hear

I asked Max:
"Now do you know what you're going to do?"

"Go home & look it up?" be answered

"Correct, & then do you know what you're going to do?"

He said "What?"

"You're going to go tell your friends about the Battle of D-Day & the beachhead of Normandy, & you will become a 'teacher of men"

What a great d
