On this day 74 years ago, the invasion of Normandy took place which ultimately resulted in the liberation of the European continent from Nazi Germany.
In a time where the world seems to be falling apart at the seams due to media reports about everything negative, it is important to remember that our world is currently at the best it has ever been in terms of a global population being free from war and captivity. This has only been made possible by the sacrifice of those who fought on our behalf, both men and women, of all ages.
It is important that we remember this and work together to ensure their memory is not forgotten.
For our tomorrow, they gave their today.
