That was my plan, but then I realized that I only have it on VHS, and no working VCR.

About to start watching episode 2 of Band of Brothers.

Let's not forget those who may not have it the beaches, either.
The bombers that did their part to prepare the area. The men driving the landing craft. The sailors that carried the soldiers across, and bombarded the beaches. The pilots dropping troops and cargo. The intelligence folks, and the counter-intelligence folks. The French resistance. And the workers on the homefront.

Every single one of them had their own part, and a hell of a job they did. Thank you all.
