A cloudy morning. The smell of saltwater. Waves crashing on the hull of the landing boats. Soldiers quiet – carrying the weight of Europe on their shoulders. We remember the brave heroes who risked everything when they landed on Juno Beach 81 years ago.

Today marks 81 years since D-Day. The day when bravery triumphed over fear. The landing was one of the most important Allied operations of World War II. It paved the way for the restoration of freedom in Europe. We honor all those who risked everything to push back evil and

President Reagan’s “Boys of Pointe du Hoc,” eloquently spoken in 1984 from the same cliffs where US Army Rangers achieved the impossible 40 years earlier. Their mission: silence the German guns aimed at the Allied landings below. Pointe du Hoc was a strategic stronghold, perched

On June 6, 1944, a synagogue on West 23rd Street in New York City held 24-hour special services on D-Day to pray for the Allied troops as they landed on the beaches of Normandy.
