Very good hour-by-hour account of D-Day in the latest National Review. I remember clustering around our big radio with my family listening to FDR announcing war on Japan, but not 2-1/2 years later on D-Day. I was probably out in the victory gardens picking potato bugs or hauling paper or metal. I remember we saved bacon grease in soup cans and took them back to the grocery store. One teenager took us out on the prairie to gather milkweed pods for use in life vests and preservers.
