On This [Longest] Day II

Jeff and Pat share a no-prize for reminding us that today is the 51st anniversary of D-day. Weirdly, nobody has been able to provide a link to a US news source noting this fact. Google news's top return is this Indian Express article, which isn't even about the event in question. Then again, considering this is the fiftieth anniversary of events that ended the war, there might be a bit of overshadowing going on. Still, don't forget to raise a glass!

Not to nitpick, but it is actually the 61st anniversary of D-Day, and 60th for the end of the war events.

Gah. Never post with low blood sugar.

This time-warp brought to you by... a missed meal!
