Here is a message to all of my American and Canadian cuzzie-bros, whose parents or grandparents spent some time during the second world war in Britain as part of our shared heroic fight for freedom.
English women had three complaints about you Americans and Canadians:
1) You were overpaid.
2) You were over-sexed
3) And you were “over here”Thank you all and God bless you!

Hier, voir un gros paquebot #costacroisières dégueulasse (qu'on imagine plein d'hypsters à shiba-inu et d'intagrameuses insouciants, sur-bronzés et flasques, ou de boomers continuant à ravager indirectement la planète toujours plus #verslinfinitaudelà) juste après les images des jeunes soldats dans les barges et les bateaux partant pour la boucherie #omahabeach , c'était....🤮 -

I knew about June 6, 1944 before I visited France eight years ago, but I've had a different awareness of this day since then, because I went to Normandy ... see my post from 2018 on IG for more:

Gastbeitrag: Call of Duty – Ein Wächter der Geschichte bei @Minkitink
So landen wir zu Beginn des Spiels am 5. Juni 1944 um 18 Uhr mit unserem Fallschirm in Sainte-Mère-Église, wo noch heute ein „Parachute Memorial“ mahnend an der Kirche hängt.

Vor ein paar Jahren war ich an #OmahaBeach und sehr bewegt. Das musste ein Song werden. Zum 80. Jahrestag des #DDay teile ich ihn noch mal mit euch:
