Saluting The Greatest Generation....70 Years Later

There are no words, more appropriate, that can describe the emotion of this day than those spoken in 1863 in the small town of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania.
 
D-Day
June 6, 1944
 
 
"The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here."
  

 "It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced."

 
"It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us -- that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion"
 
 
"that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."
 
Abraham Lincoln
  

To those of "the Greatest Generation"....your sacrifice on that day 70 years ago, has allowed us to enjoy the freedoms unlike any other on the earth. 
 
God bless you.
 
and
 
Thank you.
 
You shall never be forgotten.
