The Normandy American Cemetery and Memorial

In honor of the anniversary of D-day on June 6, 1944, I wrote a storoem (see my portfolio, if interested) about the Normandy American Cemetery and Memorial in France where the American soldiers who were killed or missing in action on the beaches at Normandy and shortly thereafter in the push inland are buried or memorialized. If you are unfamiliar with this cemetery, check out this link and be sure to look at the pictures there:

We owe these gallant soldiers homage forever for their actions back then.

Cheers!
