American forces will land all over again as D-Day is played out once again on the shores of Lake Erie, Ohio, northeast of Cleveland.
AUGIST 21-22: D-Day Conneaut. This town on lake Erie, northeast of Cleveland, annually stages what is billed as the largest D-Day re-enactment in the United States.
It includes amphibious landing, inland combat re-enactments and encampments representing both Allied and German forces.
Sounds Interesting. --GreGen
My Cooter's History Blog has become about 80% World War II anyway, so I figured to start a blog specific to it, especially since we're commemorating its 70th anniversary and we are quickly losing this "Greatest Generation." The quote is taken from Pearl Harbor survivor Frank Curre, who was on the USS Tennessee that day. He died Dec. 7, 2011, seventy years to the day. His photo is below at right.
