I hope you’ll join me in taking a moment to reflect on the sacrifices that were made that morning 75 years ago and honor the men who were there.

Right now I’m headed to Bedford, VA, home of the National D-Day Memorial, to commemorate what happened that June morning in 1944 and thank the D-Day veterans who will be in attendance.

But perhaps the greatest measure of what took place that day is this: 75 years later, we still live in a world safe for freedom and democracy. For that, I’m grateful.

His were among the thousands of individual acts of valor that day. We recognize them them with medals. We tell their stories so we never forget the men who stopped the Nazi’s advance and changed the course of history.

He saved the lives of his men and led the charge through German defenses before he was killed in action. Lt. Monteith was awarded the Medal of Honor for his extraordinary courage in battle.

Among them were 19 young men in the first wave from Bedford, VA — a small town that sent 35 of its sons to war. By the end of the war, 22 of the “Bedford Boys” had been killed in action — the largest loss of any American town. pic.twitter.com/ayxb3gtBC0

In the early morning 75 years ago today, Allied forces landed on the beaches of Normandy and began the liberation of Europe. The anniversary of D-Day is a somber day to remember the incredible sacrifices made that day. #DD75 pic.twitter.com/vZquHau6H7

This is the right move. I hope legislators will come to Richmond with a willingness to find common ground on ways to reduce gun violence. Keeping our Commonwealth safe can and should be a bipartisan effort. twitter.com/NPR/status/113…

Jared Kushner says he doesn't know how he'd react if the Russians contact him again. "I don't know, it's hard to do hypotheticals." Senator @MarkWarner says campaigns should be REQUIRED to report foreign contacts within a week.
