Eighty years ago this week, Allied forces landed on the beaches of Normandy, beginning the liberation of Western Europe. An apt D-Day quote

At the core, American citizen soldiers knew the difference between right and wrong, and they didn't want to live in a world in which wrong prevailed, so they fought, and won, and all of us, living and yet to be born, must be forever profoundly grateful.

My decision to attack at this time and place was based upon the best information available . . . If any blame or fault attaches to the attempt it is mine alone.

At this historic moment surely not one of us is too busy, too young, or too old to play a part in a nation-wide, perchance a world-wide vigil of prayer as the great crusade sets forth.

The first twenty-four hours of the invasion will be decisive. . . . the fate of Germany depends on the outcome. For the Allies as well as Germany, it will be the longest day.

Should the Pentagon recalibrate to far more numerous, cheaper, simpler, and often unmanned planes, ships, land craft, and weapons platforms?

There will never be a substitute for behemoth aircraft carriers and larger armies that showcase U.S. strength.

Big weapons platforms and numerous and cheaper planes and ships are not antithetical but complementary assets.

We won World War II by producing lots of inexpensive ships and aircraft, and we can do so successfully again.

The only way to deter our growing list of enemies is to outnumber them in ships and planes.

We should cease making costly and vulnerable weapons systems like huge carriers and manned bombers.
