I wasn't gonna comment on this.
But ever since I saw a segment from a local news station, KGUN 9, which covered this a**hole's remarks at the American Cemetery in #Normandy instead of the #DDay81 event near the #VA event here in #Tucson, I have been fuming!
I hate that this thing is our #SecDef 🤬
We fought #Facism 81 years ago on foreign soil. Now, TODAY, it is our solemn DUTY, to fight it here in #America and defeat it once and for all. 🙏 #NeverForget #DDay81 ✊️

Situation tactique le 6 juin 1944 au soir. Les Alliés devaient atteindre la ligne bleu marine le Jour J à minuit. Si l'initiative est bien dans leur camp, le succès de l'opération Overlord reste encore à confirmer les semaines suivantes.

Kriegsmarine battery Vasouy covered the entrance of the Seine and defended the harbor of Le Havre with its E-Boat pen. After the invasion it was captured by the British. Because the battery was threatening Le Havre, German divers crossed the Seine and blew up the guns. #DDay81 youtu.be/azbRVlb-QTM

Papa did not storm the beaches on D-Day because he was a US Marine in the south Pacific.
Fun fact...
Elizabeth II served more time in the military than DJT or his sons & daughters or his father or his grandfather.

In memory of all who perished in the beaches of Normandy we honor them with a simple display. The flags of the US and France graced a Great Uncle's cross at the America Cemetery high above Omaha Beach in Normandy France.

81 years ago, the bravest generation stormed the beaches of Normandy to free Europe from the clutches of a brutal authoritarian.
Now America needs our allies to help us free ourselves from our own brutal authoritarian, TACO Trump.
