Today is the 60th anniversary of D-Day, in which British, Canadian and American troops landed in Normandy at the start of the campaign to liberate Europe from Nazi domination. I'm sitting here remembering my visits to the war memorials and cemetaries in Bayeux. Politics and modern anti-war sentiments aside, I think that today everyone who has enjoyed the relative freedoms of the post-WWII world should stop and thank our forefathers for what they did 60 years ago.
Mood: thoughtful
Music: None
