    73 years ago a bunch of US and allied men decided NOT to hold a candlelight vigil on the beaches of Normandy.

    All the Portland soldiers must have been given latrine duty.

    One of my 2 (grand) dads stormed the beaches of Normandy on D-Day. However, he landed on Utah Beach instead of Omaha, which is can partially be attributed to him surviving the war; still got 2 Purple Hearts later on in France and Germany.

    The persistence of HH members in believing that 2 human beings of the same sex can procreate never ceases to astonish.

    Christ, it's like BeaverMobile never died

    Omaha is memorialized and mythologized, because it was a tough landing. But even had we* been repulsed completely at Omaha, the landings would have been a success because Utah, Sword, and Juno were relatively uncontested. Again, for the umpteenth time, we* didn't do this until it was a foregone conclusion that we* would succeed. Ask race, he was there

    I still pissed all over myself
    you do that anyway
