On June 6, 1944, thousands of brave American and Allied troops stormed the beaches of Normandy and parachuted behind enemy lines, launching the operation that helped liberate Europe from tyranny and secure victory in World War II.
Today, we honor the courage, sacrifice, and unwavering resolve of the Greatest Generation.
FDR said “Hitler built a fortress around Europe, but he forgot to put a roof on it.” Previously, on the 80th anniversary of D-Day, I was honored to participate in a parachute jump over Normandy alongside fellow veteran Members of Congress to recognize and commemorate the greatness of our heroes 🇺🇸
