91, I am glad that your Grandfather got to see it. It is a remarkable Memorial.

I remember being a 16 year old kid on a high school senior trip to France. As I stood in the Cemetery at Normandy and walked the cliffs that those young men had to scale, I was moved to tears. The men of your Grandfather's and my Dad's generation were truly "The Greatest Generation". Without them, God only knows what this world would be today.

Idk if I could do that ... I'm entirely too emotional in general ... But it must be an awesome sight to see.

I'm sure you've read Tom Brokaws book The Greatest Generation ... A few tears were shed.
