In a few months, it will be the seventy-ninth anniversary of the D-Day landings in Normandy. The youngest surviving Allied veterans who fought in them are now 96, and the vast majority of their fellow soldiers have already departed this life. Over 4,000, mostly American and Canadian, departed on June 6, 1944 itself, along with many thousands of Germans.

Great text, David! My name is Bruno Leal. I'm a professor of contemporary history at the University of Brasilia in Brazil, and I'm also the editor of a Public History Blog called Café História (since 2008!). Would you authorize the translation (to portuguese, by me) and publication of this text in Café História? It would be amazing to present this reflection to the Brazilian audience. Of course, all credits would be given.
