D-Day plus 70

[julesjones]

This is what I posted 10 years ago today:

I am not one of those who would have been taken to the gas chamber, but many of my friends are. Had things gone differently sixty years ago today, some of them would not have been born, because their parents or grandparents would have died in the death camps.

Thousands gave their lives so that others might live. Many others came back maimed in body or mind. Remember them.
