Eighty years ago this week, 156,000 Allied troops landed on the beaches of Normandy in France on D-Day to Liberate Europe from Nazi tyranny.
It is one of the most well-remembered battles in history, with annual remembrance ceremonies taking part on the famous beaches where thousands of men died.
But some argue the celebration of the role women played in helping the Allies prepare for the invasion has been neglected in comparison.

Here’s two women’ memoirs that would make an eye opening read.
Too soon we forget how “war” consumes huge amounts of resources and leaves behind a legacy that shouldn’t be forgotten.

ROGERS: Only Veterans Lose at VA Monopoly
by Sam Rogers | May 29, 2024 | Opinion
*** begin quote ***
The VA’s fingerprints can be found all over the recently introduced the Senator Elizabeth Dole 21st Century Veterans Healthcare and Benefits Improvement Act, which gives VA bureaucrats the power to take a veteran in crisis and send them to a facility on the other side of the country rather than getting them help where they are, as fast as possible. It even sunsets consideration of “Best Medical Interest” which should objectively terrify any healthcare recipient.

The old joke about vets saying that their VA doc is out to kill them seems to right true.
Argh!
Anyone remember D-Day and why vets deserve the best care available?
