What is the most important WWII memorial?
Americans: Normandy
The rest of the world: Auschwitz-Birkenau
This, likely, also explains the election of Donald Trump and the general shrug to his demolition of US democracy...

Good Morning #Canada
On June 6, 1944, my father was hospitalized in England, recovering from shrapnel wounds inflicted during the Italian campaign, and he joked that he missed all the excitement. That "excitement" included 1074 casualties on D-Day, including 359 killed, as Canadian troops secured Juno Beach to begin the defeat of Nazi Germany. It took another 11 months of bloody battles before Allied military forced surrender.
