This photo was taken from the memorial for those who died on D-Day. It was an overcast day, but still serene. It is difficult to imagine what occurred long ago on this beach and beachhead. Some movies like "The Longest Day" and "Saving Private Ryan" attempt to show it as it was. As I stood there with a 12 year-old granddaughter, I hoped that there would never be another World War. As I write this I am not sure that there will never be one.
