Today is the 80th anniversary of the D-Day invasion in Omaha Beach during World War 2. More than 70,000 American troops joined the allied forces for the dangerous and daring D-Day operation. Over 2,500 Americans were killed on D-Day itself and some 29,000 more in the Battle of Normandy that followed.

And today I've commemorated that fateful event with this piece and included poppies because a certain Peanuts special had mentioned both D-Day and a well known World War 1 poem (What Have We Learned, Charlie Brown?). Never forget.

Today should be a national holiday to honor the Greatest Generation. It is the 76th anniversary of the D-Day invasion which liberated western Europe from Nazi control. Whether you know it or not, you owe a debt of gratitude to the men and women who served in the armed forces, especially during WWII, and to the multitudes who worked in the war effort and in keeping our country running while so many were involved directly in the war effort. . . . #winstonchurchill #wwii #greatestgeneration #ddayinvasion #normandyfrance #sejpaints #acrylicpainting #honorthefallen #honorthosewhoserve #army #airforce #navy #marines #coastguard #wasps #wacs #spitfire (at Carriage House Studio of Windy Acre Cottage) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBGSQveBgn5/?igshid=kwg4oe5q73h1

On Tuesday morning, June 6, 1944, 76 years ago today, the allied invasion of Normandy, France began. Operation Overlord had begun. It was a desperate attempt, and a very dangerous one, to free Western Europe from Nazi control. Never was so much owed by so many to so few. . . . . #winstonchurchill #wwii #greatestgeneration #ddayinvasion #normandyfrance #sejpaints #acrylicpainting #honorthefallen #honorthosewhoserve #army #airforce #navy #marines #coastguard #wasps #wacs #spitfire (at Carriage House Studio of Windy Acre Cottage) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBGSET-BZy1/?igshid=wqammijrh11i
