I have thought about a number of older veterens off and on most of today. I happen to work with quite a few younger people. I considered asking them what 6/6/44 meant to them but didn't because I knew that most likely now a single one would even be aware of what I was talking about. I have always felt that these young folks were never properly instructed regarding history and what can be learned from it. Maybe its simply the fact that I grew up knowing so many WWII vets being a baby boomer myself which makes me feel so stronly about this subject. I still remember watching Sgt. Thorn strap on both of his "legs" if I happened to wonder by his place to play with his two sons back when I was ten or so. I always marveled at the scars and blue marks on his rugged face. When asked about his experiences in Europe he only said that he was thankful to be alive. There were a few photographs and a frame of various decorations in his den which told me more than he ever said. God bless him and all vets. Thanks for what you did or for what you are doing.
