" I had it bad. The empty camera trembled in my hands. It was a new kind of fear shaking my body from toe to hair, and twisting my face. Remembrance of landing on Omaha Beach, D-Day. "

Okay, a serious topic today. Because today, August 1st, is the 80th anniversary of the Warsaw Uprising. In 1944, almost 5 years after the German invasion in 1939, the underground resistance in Poland decided to make a stand against the Germans. Using the fact that the Eastern Front has all but collapsed, and the Wehrmacht was in full retreat, followed by the Red Army, Polish Underground State (conspiracy resistance structures in Poland) took a decision to stage an armed uprising, to liberate the capital of Poland before the Soviets came.
"FOR WE WANTED TO BE FREE, AND OWE THE FREEDOM TO JUST OURSELVES."

80th Anniversary of D-Day
Today marks the 80th anniversary of the landings at Normandy. The bravery, selflessness, and tenacity of the men and women of WWII are the reason I have the freedom to write words on this silly hellsite.
To them I say, ‘Thank you.’

The British 2nd Army, Commandos of the 1st Special Service Brigade, landed from an LCI(S) (Landing Craft Infantry Small) on ‘Queen Red’ Beach, the Sword Area, approximately 8.40 am on 6 June 1944. The brigade commander, Brigadier Lord Lovat DSO MC, can be seen striding through the water to the right of the column of men. The figure nearest the camera is the brigade’s bagpiper, Piper Bill Millin. Lord Lovat exercised his right as Chief of Clan Fraser to have a personal piper accompany him in the vanguard of the D-Day landings on Sword Beach
