65 Years Ago on a French Coast . . .

Saturday is the 65th anniversary of the D-Day invasion.  Too bad Netflix doesn't offer "Saving Private Ryan" for instant viewing in honor of the occasion. 

Here's a worthwhile article from the WSJ on the subject.  An excerpt:

The world offers challenges each year since freedom is tested in each generation by new pharaohs. We need the guardians of liberty to remind us how precarious that freedom is. We need to rise to the occasion the way young American soldiers did on June 6, 1944. They are a constant reminder that liberty requires vigilance and courage if it is to survive.
