D-Day remembered

This blog has always been about footie and the lighter side of life. But today I want to call attention to D-Day and the sacrifice made by that generation. In our current lives it has become to easy to forget all the hardship and sacrifices suffered by those that fought during WWII as well as WWI, Korea, Vietnam and the countless other smaller regional conflicts during the Cold War and beyond. However on days such as these we should pause and reflect on what past generations have given to allow us to have the freedom of rambling on blogs, Tweeting, using facebook, having a cup of coffee, arguing politics and just enjoying all the opportunities of living in a free society.

Merci
