 After long years of brutal war in Europe, June 6th, 1944 proved to be the tipping point in World War II, when the Allied forces landed in Normandy to liberate France from Nazi occupation. Although the coronavirus pandemic has severely reduced our ability to commemorate D-Day together in person, it is imperative we honor all the Allied forces who stood to fight on land in the air and at sea. In the face of tyranny, 76 years ago on D-Day, as well as reflect on the heroes who made the ultimate sacrifice that grueling day. Overall, D-Day is about bravery, strength of alliance, love of freedom, and unrelenting commitment. Today, we continue to stand with our European allies and partners in maintaining a continent at peace. Although we may be a part because of COVID-19, the most disruptive global crisis since World War II, together we honor the past as we secure the future, together we remember it.
