Why we remember D-Day

Lots of reports on commemorations of D Day this week. Here’s a succinct report by Emma Watkins and Alexandra Marotta in a column for The Daily Signal:

If the invasion of Normandy had been unsuccessful that day, Europe might have remained under Nazi control, and our world might look much different today. That battle was the tipping point needed to liberate Europe.


The American troops who fought in D-Day were not fighting to liberate their own land. They fought to preserve the free world.


Most of those troops probably didn’t wake up that morning anticipating that their sacrifice would change the world. They got up knowing only that they had work to do.


That’s a valuable lesson for a generation that often sees going to work as an obligation, rather than an opportunity to effect change.


Some 6,603 American troops were killed, wounded, or missing in action in the Normandy invasion. They fought for a cause that was larger than simply securing the beaches. That sacrifice is often taken for granted today. It is essential that we do not let the significance of what was achieved on D-Day be forgotten.
