Default Bedford, Va. D Day Memorial visit

My wife and I visited Bedford, Va. this past October and had the privilage of visiting the D Day Memorial there. My son and daughter-in-law live in Bedford and we all went to this most amazing and humbling tribute to our living world war 2 veterans as well as the many who died on the beachs of Normandy. I was born on July 21, 1945 and have a family of WW2 veterans. My father, my uncles and my aunts all served with great patrotism and courage,two of whom died in the Pacific arena. My father in law is now 88 years old and was on the Yorktown. Oh how he loves to tell the stories of courageous young Americans fighting for the freedoms we now many times take for granted. God bless all the remaining WW2 veterans and their service to our great country..
