In my post about D-Day, I wrote, “In 1942 the President, along with his Joint Chiefs of Staff, coordinate strategy with the British. Winston Churchill foresees that the key to overcoming Germany is to enter France through the formidable Normandy beaches – as unfriendly as they are, they are the least heavily guarded.

Yeah, so my dog… Read More

Young Lady is turning nine. She’s approaching those pre-teen years that I dread so much am so excited for.

She was allowed to choose one… Read More
