D-Day

Some things to consider on this 71st anniversary of the Allied Invasion of Europe (D-Day).

- General Eisenhower's D-Day Speech

- Here's the speech Eisenhower planned to give if things went badly. He planned to take full responsibility. Thank God he never had to give that speech.

- Cool - D-Day landing scenes then and now.

And if you find yourself watching a baseball game today remember that on this day in 1944 Major League Baseball cancelled all games because they didn't think it was appropriate to be playing games while men were fighting and dying on the beaches of Normandy.
