My Normandy France D-Day Pictures

Normandy D-Day is a reminder that freedom comes with a responsibility and a cost. The greatest generation never fails to remember. Will subsequent generations be willing to bear the burden?

Bedford, Virginia, 7 miles from my home is the home of the National D-Day Memorial.

In 2002 we traveled to Normandy with friends and were moved by the beautiful burial grounds of the D-Day grounds there. Here are some pictures.

1. Is the actual D-Day Memorial. 2. These were the cliffs our boys from Bedford had to climb. 3. Is it any wonder as a precentage, there were more of our Bedford boys killed here than any other town in the US. 4. Not all the beaches had the same risks. Some were easier to land on.If you look carefully, you can see the concrete barges that were connected together to form a temporary harbor the boats could land as all the other harbor areas were well fortified by the Germans. 5.
