Selfless courage, dedication and sacrifice for this country, Reagan understood exactly what they did. Never forget. I keep going back to look at the expression on that soldiers face in the photo above, stunning.

Tomorrow will be a tough day for me. I will visit the Normandy American Cemetary and Memorial. Go there:http://www.abmc.gov/cemeteries/cemeteries/no.php I have walked the beaches, visited the towns where Airborne Troopers and Gliders landed. Tomorrow I will say Thanks to those that never came Home, never got old, never quit the fight for Freedom and never saw another sunrise but gave their All for something more noble than themselves. I will Honor them with prayer and won't have to read it from a damn Teleprompter. Where do We find Men like these? Now, sadly in cemeteries or Nursing Homes because they are going away fast. Some volunteered, some were conscripted, some were career soldiers like me but all are deserving of my respect and humble thanks. Mike and Mata, great job and Thanks to you both.
