They did this for you

On June 6, 1944, thousands of average guys poured out of those landing craft not knowing if they would get past the ramp, and they kept going. Thousands of them didn't get past the sand on the beach. Many never got past the ramp. History says they did it to defeat tyranny. That's not true. They did this for the brothers standing next to them, and for the people back home they wanted to protect. They did this for you.

Please don't forget it.
