I scrolled through the recent posts on both the blogsites I inhabit just to make sure I didn't miss something, but no...it just wasn't there. Not one mention...not an article or just a random comment. How come? As a community, have we just forgotten? Or maybe we don't feel it is worth the effort to mention. Every year since I started blogging, I have posted some sort of article honoring the men and women who participated in the invasion of France on June 6th, 1944. I thought about it yesterday; don't know why I waited, I just know that it sickens me that Weiner's wiener, Arnold's wiener, baby-killin' mommy, or whatever else is front page is more important than a short mention of those who undertook the saving of the world. The men and women who participated in WWII are dying at the rate of about 1800 per day; it won't be long 'til they are all gone. My dad, the Chief, spent his late teens on a destroyer in the Pacific; he has been dead for fourteen years now, but I can still hear his voice in my ear telling me that I could never forget what was done for us. I never will...seems I am in the minority there, though.
