it has become part of almost legend and lore by now. it is heavily celebrated and a good example is that you have the heads of state there today to celebrate the 65th anniversary. it is generally seen by the world as a key moment in world history. and i think the veterans, as the people who made the history happen, will be drawn to it that much more. beyond that, i think they are drawn to normandy and the beaches for the same reason that many veterans of many wars go back to experience the places they fought. it is a sense of closure. it is a sense of reliving that key moment in their lives and it meant something to them. it meant something because of the friends they had, the friends they lost there, and i think that many of them feel like that is the way they can honor those whom they lost. host: john mcmanus talking about the 65th anniversary of d-day. those that would like to get involved the numbers are on the screen. host: by all means give us a call there. and we would like to hear from you especially. john, you talked about the
