D-Day +1
June 6, 1944:
D-Day, turning the tide of World War II in Europe. I was obviously not there, thankfully. But I have great respect for those that were, as well as all the men and women in the Armed Forces, past and present, who represent the US with honor. It may or may not come as a suprise to know that I am a millitary history nut. Especially WWII. Emily got me a couple of good books for Christmas, a day by day account of D-Day; and also a battle by battle book of the entirety of WWII. Both are quite the wealth of information, including some of the tactics used, and the weaponry they fought with.
That is all for now.
P.S. It hit 93 degrees yesterday. And those Thunderstorms did drop a Tornado or 2. One was maybe 20-30 miles at most from my house. However, I was still at work at the time.
Ok, now that is really all. That, and its 2:45 AM.
