Let us remember:
Yesterday was “D-Day”, June 6th, 1944, which ultimately led to the defeat of Hi**er.
It was the beginning of the end to his tyranny and the genocide of the Jews.
156,000 Allied troops landed on the first day
~7,000+ ships
~11,000 aircraft
Estimated number of Allied soldiers killed, wounded, missing: ~10,000
Let us be ever so grateful for those who laid down their young lives!
These are indeed mind boggling numbers… a stark reminder of the severity of the struggle and a cause worth sacrificing for.
Especially when my own father in Germany had been drafted at age 16 in 1943 to load anti aircraft cannons for the Germans.
My Dad always talked about how terrible it was, how their lives were counted for nothing but cannon fodder.
I will never forget… my Dad has passed, but the memories of him telling us will never fade.
Many Americans seem to have no concept of what a tyrannical government actually is.
They have never experienced it. They are foolish to think Trump is a king! … foolish to think Iran was no threat…
Being in a free country and forgetting the hardships of those who went before can be detrimental and cloud the discernment.
Jeremiah 6:16 NKJV — Thus says the LORD: “Stand in the ways and see, And ask for the old paths, where the good way is, And walk in it; Then you will find rest for your souls.
But they said, ‘We will not walk in it.’
We do well if we remember.
Those who went before can teach us so much.
