Today is the anniversary of the British and American soldiers landing on the beaches of Normandy to battle the Germans. Is D Day celebrated much in England?
As I mentioned in the past, my grandfather was rded medals for saving countless lives under enemy fire as a medic during D Day. From what I understand, he fought along the side of British troops as well. Ironically, he was a 2nd or 3rd generation American of German descent.
