60th d-day anniversary!
just played medal of honor and finished it.
and yeah stuck on tv early this afternoon watching d-day ceremonies.

ay oo nga pla meron kanina isang german tourist na nagsabi "all the flags of the countries that participated in D-day were displayed except one a GERMAN flag"

I'm about to get one, kaso out of stock daw dito sa SM South....I'll try browsing here in Manila...^__^ Maganda dw yan e....

About Germany not participating, matagal nang pinagtatalunan yan...I remember reading a post somewhere here in in Armorama about a link about the D-Day ceremonies (last year), kse yung French Gov't daw ang nag-a-ayos ng mga yun...It said na plan nilang i-invite yung mga vets ng Panzer at ibang German units na present na nandun, kaso there was a great outrage among the Allied vets..."The feeling...It's still here" sabi nila....Kaya hnde na lng natuloy....

In my opinion, sana isama nila ang Germany....Wala na nmn ang Nazism...Involved din nmn cla.....Meron dn nmng acts of valor yung mga tao nila dun... Beliefs aside, they also exhibited soldiery, bravery, and other commendable stuff...Sana isama na lng nila...Kagaya ng Japan, tuwing Bataan Day, nagbibigay ng tribute...

Y'know, in that NGC documentary. At the end of the program, the 3 aging vets, an Brit, an American and a German gathered together and reminisced old times as if they were long-lost friends. No animosity there.
