Eighty-two years ago today, the fate of the free world turned on the courage of ordinary men asked to do the extraordinary.
On June 6, 1944, more than 156,000 Allied soldiers crossed the English Channel and stormed the beaches of Normandy — many knowing they might never return.
They came not for glory, but for something far greater: the liberation of a continent crushed under tyranny. D-Day was not simply a military operation — it was the moment the tide of history changed, purchased at an almost incomprehensible cost in blood and sacrifice.
As we mark the 82nd anniversary, we don’t simply remember a battle. We remember the men behind it — their fear, their faith, and their extraordinary willingness to give everything so that others could live free. That debt does not expire with time. It only deepens.

Census takers and specially trained U.S. Postal Service workers have begun visiting households that haven’t yet responded to the 2026 Census Test in Huntsville, AL, and Spartanburg, SC.
Households are still encouraged to respond online on their own.

I have 4 four boys — 25-25-23-19.
Today I’m thinking about the young men and women their age who gave everything for this country.
Puts it all in perspective.
Grateful. 🇺🇸

“We’re a blessed program. We follow the rules. There’s not a lot of that going on right now, and that’s one of the reasons we can sleep when the wind blows.”
Penn State’s Cael Sanderson after winning his 13th NCAA Wrestling title.
When Mitchell Mesenbrink got to the podium, he went through and shook the hand of the other All-Americans at 165 - all but Mikey Caliendo’s. When Mesenbrink stuck out his hand to the Hawkeye, Caliendo refused to acknowledge him. Mesenbrink shrugged and moved on.
There is nothing like what Penn State Nittany Lions wrestling is doing right now.

We may never see anything like this again.
