[QUOTE="moreluck, post: 740045, member: 1246"] [SIZE=3][COLOR=teal]Obama celebrated by having a concert with Kelly Clarkson. If it had been Mohammed's birthday, he would've had dinners and fireworks and all kinds of celebrations. Ain't he a peach?[/COLOR][/SIZE] June 06, 2010 [B]Normandy ceremonies mark 66th anniversary of D-Day invasion[/B] COLVILLE-SUR-MER, France (AP) — Veterans and those grateful for their sacrifices have marked the 66th anniversary of the D-Day landings, remembering the invasion that turned the tide of World War II. U.S. veteran William Duane Bush, wearing a military jacket, raised the American flag at the Normandy American Cemetery in Colleville-sur-Mer, which overlooks Omaha . It was the first time 93-year-old Bush of Lincoln, Nebraska had returned to Europe since the war's end. An ecumenical service was held at the cathedral in the town of Bayeux, where a wreath-laying service also took place at the British military cemetery. Some 215,000 Allied soldiers, and roughly as many Germans, were killed or wounded during D-Day and the ensuing nearly three months it took to the capture of Normandy. [/QUOTE]
