    It seems like the point of this article is the author using the D-Day anniversary as a vehicle to express his personal political opinions.
    Maybe I'm being overly sensitive but I think it's in poor taste to inject politics of any kind into events that commemorate fallen soldiers.
    But that's just me. :/
