Today’s photo is of the Normandy American Cemetery in France.
The cemetery lies above Omaha Beach where thousands of young Americans gave their lives.
Those brave soldiers and marines will remain forever where they fought and died.
A number of years ago I met a veteran who went ashore in the first wave.
He said everyone was crying as they waded ashore.
Many of his friends died all around him.
Memorial Day is more than a day to enjoy a barbeque with friends and family.
It is a day to remember those thousands of young men who didn’t come home.
FREEDOM IS NOT FREE!
