- Eleanor Roosevelt, 'My Day' Column for June 6, 1944, D-Day:

.."This is the beginning of a long, hard fight, a fight for ports where heavy materials of war must be landed, a fight for airfields in the countries in which we must operate. Day by day, miles of country may be taken, lost and retaken.

That is what we have to face, what the boys who are over there have been preparing for and what must be done before the day of victory. That day is coming surely. It will be a happy and glorious day. How can we hasten it?"...

1. D-Day and RFK assassination anniversaries. The protests will

now be part of our history too.

2. Thanks for reminding about RFK, I recall that

horrible time.

The protests now, it's all relative and history!
