Take a look at this clip and remember those who gave all for our country. I tear up every time I watch it, specifically at the scenes of soldiers loading into their landing crafts. It reminds me of my dad, who was a landing craft driver during the Normandy invasion. I cannot imagine the terror, the chaos, or the valor required to do that job. Those were amazing men.
The other scene that just tears me up is the two WWII vets in the cemetery, one missing part of a leg. I can't imagine standing there where brave young men who you went through training with are buried. Why did you live and they die? Fate? Luck? Divine intervention? We may never know.
Watch the clip and remember those who gave all for our freedom.
Musings of a Poser - as defined by Brennan Manning - and now fully embracing my status as a ragamuffin dependent on the Grace of God and nothing else.
About Me
- Roy
- I'm a Renaissance Man wannabee - I keep getting into weird stuff like trebuchet construction, homemade smokers, bat house construction and strange things like that. I'm over 50, self-employed and a high school teacher. I married way up and lost her to cancer, and have two wonderful daughters who continue to amaze me.
