"D-Day.....What's that?"

 At the doctor's office this morning, our first meeting was with the assistant.

She happily announced that today is DONUT DAY!

We both told her that it was also D-Day.

She said:  "What's that?"

Those scared shitless boys landing on that beach to give us, and her, our lives, many not surviving.

And people have forgotten them. 

We haven't.  

Years ago I visited Normandy Beach.  There is a cemetery there.  It is full of GIs. Boys really.  It is American soil, although it is located in France.

I picked a cross about a hundred yards in the distance and walked to it.  

I thanked him.
