70 years ago a guy called Elzie L. North, age 22, from Duval county Florida, died in Normandy France.
He gave his life a few day after D-day, during the invasion in Normandy.
Just a Private First Class of the U.S. Army,116th Infantry Regiment, 29th Infantry Division.
He is buried in Plot J, Row 18, Grave 14. Among 9.385 others who gave their life to defend our freedom. What can you say if someone is prepared to risk his life for the benefit of others, that he didn't even know, in places that he never heard of.

Yes, a wonderful tribute. So many have given so much.
Indeed Rob, something we seem to forget too easily.
