Site Info
Content & design © Lisa. I have always been fascinated with WWII and especially D-Day. I was lucky enough to visit Normandy and Omaha Beach in the summer of 2003 (check out my pictures!). I have a great respect for everyone that was involved with the D-Day invasion . This site was in no way made to disrespect the brave soldiers of D-Day. It was only made to honor them and bring people together to show our thanks for all that they did.
The main picture is from the US Coast Guard. Various other pictures found through a google search or the links listed here. Any questions or comments, email me.
