"What a country we are," marveled Art Rose in a letter he wrote to his parents after the D-Day invasion in 1944. Now, 82 years later, Art is 107 years old, and he read his letter aloud at a D-Day commemoration ceremony in Normandy, France, today. Watch the Navy veteran read his letter to home, and see more on how D-Day was remembered by the likes of Sec. of War Hegseth and others, at the link in the first comment.
