A message from Jerry…

First of all, we remember June 6, 1944 as D-Day. The photo in the corner is of my Dad, and I wish to take this opportunity to reminisce about him. On that day, in the early morning hours, 173,000 American and Allied Forces stormed the five beaches of Normandy. My Dad was one of those troops. He was engaged in seven major battles during WWII, including D-Day and the Battle of the Bulge. His unit was also part of the forces that liberated the concentration camp at Buchenwald. The legacy of those heroes lives on today as we celebrate this 82nd anniversary of the Normandy invasion. The other photo is of me standing on that very beach on June 6, 2022. It was a special thrill.
