Il 6 giugno, in Normandia, piove sempre….almeno per un'ora: è tradizione. Il vento gonfia le bandiere appese alle finestre e ai cigli della strada, muove le foglie della fitta vegetazione e accarezza le mucche al pascolo che, stupite, osservano centinaia e centinaia di strani veicoli, passare per strade solitamente poco più che deserte. Il 6 giugno, in Normandia, il colore dominante è il verde… meglio se verde oliva…. Un'atmosfera quasi magica fa si che migliaia di persone si ritrovino per qualcosa di straordinario: non importa da che parte del mondo tu venga. In quel momento, in quel giorno, la cosa per te importante è essere li….in quel posto, su quelle spiagge. Le stesse spiagge che 75 anni fa hanno visto 5000 navi scaricare quei pochi novantenni che abbiamo ancora la fortuna di incontrare nella nostra vita; con gli occhi lucidi di emozione. Più di 40.000 ragazzi sono morti su quelle spiagge ed è per questo che, forse, il 6 giugno, in Normandia, piove sempre… almeno per un'ora: è per non dimenticare.

A cross, a strain to remember all the valiant men of any color, religion that gave their lives to make others live!
Congratulations.
A salute

Andy I was also on the 75th anniversary of the landing, a truly exciting event that you can not tell with the words alone!
Unfortunately coming home I found my computer out of use so I'm afraid I won't be able to post my photos before a few days.
Congratulations!
Fabio
