Dear All.
Pls spent 1 min of ... all the braves of June 6, 1944 ... (72years ago).
I include Germans as well.
Most of all the readers of this thread have been born after 1945, so am I.
And I am happy to have so many real friends worldwide.
And this is the reason, why exactly I think every year on June 6th ... about Ohama Beach (standing symbolwise) ...

As a German, what do you think of World War 2, it's heroes, battles, and countries?
Just curious!
Als Deutscher, was halten Sie von World War 2, ist es Helden, Schlachten und Ländern?
Nur neugierig!

Hi Jacey.
good question! I would like to explain you that, but I would need about 1 hour minimum of explaining time.
I will try to do it step by step, when time allows me.
First of all: keep on your curiousity. its the power for future experience and hopefully wisdom.
Well, for the moment being and to cut a long story short:
I am not convinced anylonger, that "war is a continuation of politics by other means" (v Clausewitz).
I think that in our world, as it is today completely controlled by nuclear and droned weapons ...
... the real enemy is the war itself.

On that day,freed Western Europe from tyranny.
"I came, I saw, I conquered" Written in a report to Rome 47 B.C., after conquering Pharnaces at Zela in Asia Minor in just five days; as quoted in Life of Caesar by Plutarch; reported to have been inscribed on one of the decorated wagons in the Pontic triumph, in Lives of the Twelve Caesars, Julius, by Suetonius. "Alea iacta est" Gaius Julius Caesar.
