My dad was in the pacific theater in 44 and there will never be another generation like them . God bless them for what they did for America .They were truly men among men.
My Dad was in the European Theater and was a great and honorable man. They bought us some time. Enough for their children to have the taste of freedom. Their grandchildren not so much - then things start heading south... heartbreaking if we let their call to action, go in vain. Trump2024
Beautiful, the French people are so appreciative !! They really put a beautiful ceremony on. Thank you to all who served and sacrificed to save the World !!! 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
How sad; probably the last of these brave men and women who fought to save our freedoms and that's who represents our country? ABSOLUTELY HEARTBREAKING ?
The disrespect from MAGA bots. Please don’t mention Felon 45’s name here. He is NOT a defender of democracy. He intends to dismantle it. This is to honor the veterans who fought in D-Day. They fought against fascism. What an honor for people to be present with these WWII veterans. ❤
I'm not saying there will be many, but my grandad god bless him always found them out on remeberance days, he would say, so how old are you, they would reply with there age, and he would say, you can't of been in WW2 you would of been too bloody young, it's sad but it does happen, to all those who actually served like my grandad, thank you for your service ❤ If you where there on the day at even 16, you would now be 96!!
My daddy served in the Army Air Corps. He flew over the English Channel and over the beaches of Normandy in a C-47. His duty was to assist the paratroopers, getting them ready to make that heroic jump. The enemy was shooting up at the plans, they would shake so hard and yet they kept flying with a mission of resolve. He passed away in 95' and I miss him so much. So very proud of you Dad.
I love how the Trump supporters through this thread show their true colors of hate and ignorance, just like Trump... They only think about themselves and become totally insulting about an event to honor the soldiers of WW2... So sad that they think they are true patriots and good people... I wish them more love in their hearts and happiness in their minds to help ease their constant anger and self-righteousness.
Ironically I was at Omaha for the ceremony and the clown in the White House spoke about the WW2 veterans for about 4 mins ! The rest of his speech was spent on promoting war with Russia ! You say Trump is full of hate? 🤡🤣🤣
I'm actually shocked that there wasn't more publicity for those who gave us the freedom for us today .l hope they are not disappointed as much as l am . THANK YOU ,such brave men,god bless ❤❤
you only need to look at those fine old gentlemen to understand why the terms we British and Americans born in later years use to characterise their generation, the young men and women of the WW2 era, are "the Best" and "the Greatest"
True heroes of Democracy past & present today June 6th 2024 in Normandy, D.C. & Virginia WW2 D-Day Memorials… From the surviving WW2 D-Day Veterans able to travel and be there, to President Biden & President Macron and many others. Of course President Zelenskyy, and his emotional moment with a WW2 Vet, who was so happy to meet him with an embrace and praise, “You’re a saviour of the People!” as Zelenskyy replied “No no! You are the saviour!”… While President Biden’s excellent speech reminds us what Ukraine is fighting for vs. Invader Putin, how it is very similar to the pre-WW2 Nazi occupation movements. That "protest voting" for a Fascist or Useless 3rd Party choice because your POTUS choice didn't win or isn't 100% perfect on every issue does not work. That "America First” movements for Isolationism here in the U.S. DO NOT WORK VS. FASCISM!!! That Putin IS this generations Hitler, that Loser J. CONVICTED FELON Trump IS a useful idiot Danger to Democracy via his anti-democratic/anti-rule of law/anti-US Constitution actions the past 8 years and his desire to be the next Putin, Kim-Jun etc… Thank you so much D-Day Vets for meeting the moment 80 years ago. Courage to not just call out Fascism, but to sacrifice the ultimate price. Thanks to all Veterans like my dad & uncle (both Vietnam Vets) for your service! Now we do OUR PART Big Tent Dems, Indies, Never Trumpers and even the frustrated Ultra Progressives not happy with Biden Harris due to issues like Gaza... This is a fragile thing, this Democracy, four generations of Americans in the U.S. have not had to be drafted, we have since had many freedoms taken for granted. Until June 2022 now thanks to naivete, bad power hungry SCOTUS & GOP Congress via Trump, corpo bothsiding media, tech billionaires and social media warfare from the ALWAYS underlying threats of Fascist Autocrats. Looking back through history is an excellent way to make generational choices in the present, to protect all that we care about for everybody’s future - Human/Civil Rights, Planet Crisis, Healthcare & SS, Stopping War Criminals named Putin & Netanyahu etc, and it all starts with preserving & protecting one thing folks. Out of both RESPECT and NECESSITY to all those that met their crucial moment 80 years ago, and gave their lives in the face of tyranny, we do not despair! LET’S MEET THIS MOMENT Boomers! My Gen X peeps! My younger sister’s Millennials! Gen Z & Gen Y! GOTV BIDEN BLUE WAVE 2024 AND BEYOND! *well not “beyond” for Biden, because Joe isn’t a Dick-tator like Loser J. Conman Rapist Traitor CONVICTED FELON Trump :)
Ugh! These D-Day Veterans deserve so much better than Joe mumbling away with his ''vision''....I literally can not stomach watching Joe talking anymore!!!
Crazy how you watch a celebration of the these great veterans and turn it into your opportunity to display your political beliefs. The veterans deserve people to value and respect them at all times even if you don't like the speakers.... STOP making it about what you think and like...
Trump called veterans suckers and losers. He also refused to attend the 75th anniversary of D Day. Besides, no WWII vet wants a convicted felon, the man who incited the Jan 6 Capitol insurrection, and who is and a great danger to American democracy at this solemn remembrance.

Those who do not know their history are doomed to repeat it. Those who do not honor the memory of their ancestors are doomed to extinction. The unconditional act of surrender was signed by Marshal of the USSR Georgy Zhukov on May 8, 1945 in the suburbs of Berlin and the witnesses were signed by the Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Allied Expeditionary Forces, Marshal Arthur Tedder (Great Britain), General K. Spaats (USA) and General J. de Lattre de Tassigny (France).
Believe me , they loved every minute, at this stage of the game , it beats sitting at home in your lazyboy, starring out the window , waiting for someone to come by and say hello or waiting for DEAD, to send you that long awaited App , that he'll drop by tonight to pick you up.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
At the Tehran Conference in 1943, Stalin sent Roosevelt and Churchill each a case of Soviet champagne. In 1944, the Allies decided to open a Second Front.
A very moving ceremony indeed! Nonetheless, I find it bit bizarre that Présidente Macron is awarding the veterans an award created by Napoléon Bonaparte, an emperor who attempted to conquer Europe. Especially given the previous speaker was going on about tyranny and despotism. Still it was quite stirring seeing him give each and everyone of them the award with the attention and solemn reverence they deserved.
You should read and learn more about Napoléon Bonaparte, in order to not be misleaded and better understand his great personality and his legacy.. Greetings from France ❤
Thank you, D-Day veterans, Presidents Biden and Macron, for being among the few leaders defending our freedom “to do what is good and right-where all people can pursue the life for which God created them” (Chaplain Karen Meeker).
@@BillyTurner-vb3hf the Republican Party is just as Evil... the Majority of the GOP in Congress voted Yes in sending Billions to Ukraine, the GOP sat on their hands allowing fraudulent elections to take place, allowing an Open Border... Democrats and Republicans are two sides of the very same coin... corrupt to the core. better off being an Independent
Look up the Ukraine 3rd assault brigade to see who DC is sending our taxes to today. Spoiler, Germany still supports the same thing but now we are on that team.
Couldn't agree more!!! How about this fact......16% more millionaires in Ukraine in the past 8 years. Or how about this fact......Navalny belonged to the Democratic Party in Moscow FUNDED BY OUR VERY OWN DEMOCRATIC PARTY!!! Or how about the CIA has had field of operations in Ukraine FOR DECADES!!! TMI???
Ancestor and grand parents and Grand mother of Kuresiro Hideku San and Mother of Kuresiro kkyku San! Always forever regreat for them and lot’s so very much them!! I never ever forget it Them!!
@bean_counter one of 2 things happened..1 brandon tried to sit in a invisible chair 2 he pooped his pants again..either one should be the 25th amendment..here's a tip..watch the full video..SMH
Высадка в Нормандии сил США, Великобритании и Канады состоялась 6 июня 1944 года. В операции со стороны союзников участвовали 156 тысяч человек, общие потери составили около 10 тысяч человек, 2,5 тысячи из них - американские солдаты. В Курской битве с июля по август 1943 года, к примеру, участвовали более миллиона военнослужащих Красной армии, потери исчислялись сотнями тысяч. Господа вы ЛИЦЕМЕРЫ!!!! Господи воздай ВСЕМ по делам их....
merci a toi et tes anciens , pour avoir combattus jusq aux sacriffices hommmes et femmes , grace a vous peuples de russie , j ai pu connaitre mes grand parents liberer des camps , milles un merci
I know there were tremendous sacrifices in Russia. Russia has endured generations of suffering - not just trauma from war, but trauma from the hands of its own leaders.
@@justbeegreenExcellent comment... How many russians were killed by Staline himself... Like today, how many young russians die for Putlers paranoia..and avidity of conquering more and more land, when Russia is the biggest country on the map. This tyrant is a second Hitler...
Trump refused to go to honor the dead because it was raining, and he called them “suckers and losers” so, if all you can think about is a political swipe. That’s one for you from the daughter of career US Navy officer. Shame on you!
@@antihero5203 Can you supply the evidence that it was "FAKE"? he might have not gone to Nam anyway, thank GOD! He went to work and hired thousands of people!

Please Ask the Lieutenant if he remembers a Young member of his team that scouted him to the ( place to scale the cliff ) location ! That gun was mounted because of fishing rights & local issues... The dam thing has been their the longest of any other gun placement to defend the beach.. By reaching this objective the FLANK of the Defence became less protected !!! Because all they had was the same guns pointing at the beach. Kinda a SUPPRISE we were there ! Look boys & girls ! When this memorial in NORMANDY was created & the "TOMB of the UNKNOWN was created I was invited ! N.O.W. ?
Felon 45 vs President Biden or Dark Brandon to you. Show some respect for the veterans by not mentioning Traitor 45’s name. He is definitely not a defender of democracy - au contraire - dismantled of democracy.
Frenchmen during the tank rehearsal of the rooms on the 80th anniversary of the landing in Normandy showed how they surrendered the country to Hitler in 50 days 85 years ago
D-Day without Russia but with Trudeau. Delirium. Zelensky enthusiastically welcomed SS Gunko at a solemn meeting of the Canadian Parliament. After that meeting, the speaker resigned, Trudeau apologized 3 days later, and the Jew Zelensky is not going to apologize. Moreover, as it turned out, the virtuoso pianist is a big fan of the Ukrainian SS and the SS division Galicia. He even signed the banner (an exact copy) of this SS division with best wishes to the current neo-Nazis. Whenever it is convenient for them, they celebrate the victory over fascism. And when necessary, they finance them, supply them with weapons, and treat them. Canada unconditionally supports the Kiev regime, including its war against the civilians of Donbass, which the country has abetted by sending money and weapons to Ukraine for years before Russia’s military operation began in February. Canada has spent nearly a billion dollars to train Ukrainian forces since 2014, including Neo-Nazi Azov fighters.
My grandfather fought the not sees in the 40s and here in America i see them and their political party of trump again, i suppose some find this far right ideology attractive still
That is incredibly disrespectful to the honourable veterans that still remain, being praised for their courage. I'm not trying to say that Russian troops didn't have any impact in the war, because they did. They were a huge part of why the world was saved from the evils of Hitler and his cabal. Along with the US, UK, and Canada. The only reason Russians weren't there are because of the actions of Putin, the current leader of Russia, and that most of the world is now obligated to arrest him on sight.
