D Day landing JtN feat 6 6 21 ‘The eyes of the world are upon you’: 77 years ago, the Allies stormed the beaches of Normandy
The D-Day landings were the largest amphibious assault in history, and broke Hitler’s chokehold on Europe in World War II
The eyes of the world are upon you. The hope and prayers of liberty-loving people everywhere march with you.”
So began the June 6, 1944 message from Dwight Eisenhower, then a general who later became president, to the American forces who soon would embark on the largest amphibious invasion in history; an invasion that broke Hitler’s World War II chokehold on western Europe.
Launched on “D-Day” following months of secret preparations, the pivotal assault sent more than 160,000 Allied troops to the beaches of Normandy in France.
Weighted down by equipment, the soldiers forged through rough surf and into a brutal barrage of enemy machine gun fire and artillery. The day brought many heroes, among them Army Rangers who scaled the formidable cliffs of Pointe du Hoc; soldiers who pushed on through withering fire; and men who fought valiantly until their last breath.
The day’s toll was heavy. The dead and wounded from Germany were 4,000-9,000. The Allies suffered some 4,500 dead and 6,000 wounded.

The full text of Eisenhower’s “Order of the Day” from that morning is as follows. “Soldiers, Sailors, and Airmen of the Allied Expeditionary Force! “You are about to embark upon the Great Crusade, toward which we have striven these many months. The eyes of the world are upon you. The hope and prayers of liberty-loving people everywhere march with you. “In company with our brave Allies and brothers-in-arms on other Fronts, you will bring about the destruction of the German war machine, the elimination of Nazi tyranny over the oppressed peoples of Europe, and security for ourselves in a free world. “Your task will not be an easy one. Your enemy is well trained, well equipped and battle-hardened. He will fight savagely. “But this is the year 1944! Much has happened since the Nazi triumphs of 1940-41. The United Nations have […]

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
