Just remembering D DAY
The 4th interval of the trumpet at the ceremony always gives me goose bumps
The Second World War could have changed everything if it had gone wrong.
Here is Aaron Copland's Fanfare For The Common Man

A war that had to be fought to liberate Europe from a right wing tyrant who didn't have a moral compass. The Third Reich had no values and saw the lives of Jews, Slavs, Socialist and the mentaly infirm as nothing of value. we had no choice but to fight the 1939-1945 war.

There was a period of time in the war that Great Britain were fighting everyone on their own too!

I am grateful that those old men and women did what they did to protect my freedom. And losing an empire and facing the Nazi's alone as we did for so long makes me proud.
