There was a regiment of Canadians bivuoaced in the fields around us. That night the engines revved and in the morning they had gone..... During the day the sky was black with thousands and thousands of aircraft - C47's towing gliders, bombers and fighters. A day to remember Thanks so very, very much John for that memory. We owe them our deepest respect for what they did on what was perhaps the most momentous day of the 20th century. I hope that goes for the 14,000 Canadians who also landed that day, and the near-1000 who died. Did I make any distinction with regard to country, you pedantic little cocksucker? |
