Tuesday, June 6 is D-Day. On this date 79 years ago, the Allied invasion of Normandy, France took place in what was known as Operation Overlord during World War II.

Codenamed Operation Neptune and often referred to as D-Day, it was the largest seaborne invasion in history.

Russell VFW Post 6240 would like to take this opportunity to pause and remember those Americans who gave their all on that day in 1944. May this be a day of solemn contemplation over the cost of freedom.
