“The world we live in today and the freedoms we enjoy are because of the men and women in uniform who made the ultimate sacrifice,” said the Veteran. June 6, 2024, marks the 80th anniversary


of D-Day,  the name given to the June 6, 1944, invasion when the largest amphibious military operation of modern times landed 156,000 Allied troops by sea and air on five beachheads in


Normandy, France.  One Army Veteran couldn’t help but reminisce of D-Day during a recent trip to Italy as he visited the Florence American Cemetery, one of only two American cemeteries in


Italy for soldiers who died during World War II. “The world we live in today and the freedoms we enjoy are because of the men and women in uniform who made the ultimate sacrifice,” said the


Veteran. “D-Day marked the beginning of the end of Nazi domination in Europe, but it came with a steep price with more than 10,000 Americans losing their lives.” He noted that the charge for


future generations is to never forget their sacrifice and to ensure we guard and protect their legacy. "We have to honor the memory of those who answered the call to serve our great


nation and fought for freedom on those five beaches.”
