JUNE 6 D-DAY
D-Day is June 6 on the National Day Calendar and we are honoring those who fought on the beaches of Normandy, France.

Day 1529 of Covid
Watched a good bit of the D-Day 80th anniversary commemorations.
Other than "When the Pipers Play" the most touching moment was when a D-Day veteran met Zelenskyy.
