I'm Americian, and you know what? I say we couldn't have done it without the red Army, or the Brits. Europe is a region to vast for one sole army to claim they were the reason the war was one. It was a team effort. While the Brits gave Nazi's hell in the skies over the isles, the Red Army delt a serious blow at Stalingrad, and Omaha was the second back-up punch. Needed all three Armys, not just one.
A memorial should never be displayed where a vote decides its place. What all your comments have shown here is exactly what is wrong with the human race today. None of you understand what it's like to be in a war, neither do I. I do understand though that I should not comment on something I had no part in, I should only say thank you and hope that sometime in my life I do catch the smallest glimpse of what it means to give up everything for the well being and freedoms of others.
"To all of the ignorant stupid *ss comments, i simply made this ytmnd to
glorify the people lost in all of world war 2. I had no idea today was
6/6/06, but I do know that june 6th 1944 was the best day in history.
without the allies winning you f*ggots would NOT BE HERE right now to be
able to vote. Shut the f*ck up ."
We'd probably still be here but I'd be trolling in a cooler language.
Thank you for this, it reminded me of how...well...non-retarted SOME internet people can be. This kind of thing, in my opinion, is more needed than anything on ytmnd. All the people that said that this doesn't belong just kind of need to get used to something new maybe. But, thank you very much for this ytmnd.
some guy said anyone who 1ned this was canadian. Look it up in history, canadians did 3 times better on d-day than americans, and we got it MUCH worse on deippe. The canadians at deippe deserve more recognition than the americans. besides, youw ould have totally got owned if we didnt try it out first (and considering you could barely take those two small beaches). Even the canadians could take more beaches than you, AND WE HADE LIKE ONLY 1/10th THE GUYS! I know this bay dent your nationalism, but its true.
obviosly, abcdefghijklmnopqrst has no brain, and no cock. Those men deid to uphold the freedom and right of people. So what if it was 60 years ago, if that didnt happen 60 years ago, than germany would have won the war and there would be no france, britain, USA, or canada. You need to learn history class, and see saving private ryan. Those men went through hell to make sure that YOU could live in a free world, and you are just throwing them in the dirt. Learn your grammar too.
BoonW: If you've seen the situation of Europe IN 1944, Germany would have lost the war even without the opening of the second front. Without a second front, that means more troops can be shipped to the Italian and Pacific fronts, and cutting off German supply routes. By May of 1942, the Germans had an oil deficit due to their war machine taking up so much gasoline that it actually slowed their offensive into the Soviet Union. In short, Germany would have lost the war.
"Sad how everyone is thinking about how it is going to be 6/6/06 and
connecting it to the devil and superstition." Ah, a true nonconformist. A champion of intellectualism and individual thought in our day and age. Thank God... er.. I mean, liberalism we have a savior such as you to deliver us from the "superstition" of a logical connection between 666 and Satan.
