Thanks for the post, Josh. It's a day that for most is easily forgotten, but is really a turning point for the war.

I really think it needs as much recognition as Pearl Harbor.

Good post!!!

Those guys didn't knowing what exactly was waiting for them and still they stormed ashore to push back enemy forces. Heroes? Absolutely!!!

I agree Josh. European operations seem to get lost in story telling. What people need to realize is that America was fighting on two fronts and kicking azz on both!
