80 years ago today. I was 1 and a half years old that day, so I do not remember those events. But since then I have learned so much about the Normandy landings. Let's not forget what happened on those beaches so many years ago.

AzWm Time for my annual re-watching of Band of Brothers and Saving Private Ryan. I like to first watch Band of Brothers Episode 1 Currahee, then watch SPR, then go back and watch Episode 2 Day of Days. I just saw that Saving Private Ryan is ranked in the 70s on AFI's top 100 film list, which is a travesty IMHO as it's one of the best films in cinematic history, on my top 10 list.

You cannot beat The Longest Day. Incredible cast and very good historically.
