D Day

Seventy six years ago today the allies launched the greatest military invasion in history which has come to be known as D Day but was actually Operation Overlord.    It was the beginning of the end of World War II.  The world knew they had to get rid of Hitler before he extended his genocide to horrific extremes-not that what he had already done wasn't horrific enough!

The Allies chose Dwight D. Eisenhower to lead this massive effort to the end of the war.  Of course Eisenhower went on to become the 34th president.

The picture you see below is him talking to paratroopers of the 101st Airborne Division just hours before their jump into France. 

Our country is in desperate need of the caliber of leadership displayed by Eisenhower, Churchill and so many others of that time.  Our current leadership doesn't deserve the honor of polishing their boots much less leading a nation.

Remember all of this in November.
