As the world reflects on Operation Overlord and the liberation of Europe from Hitler’s Germany, it is crucial to acknowledge the dwindling number of WWII veterans, particularly those who participated in D-Day. Experts emphasize the importance of preserving their stories, honoring their legacies, and educating future generations about the sacrifices made.

The National D-Day Memorial Foundation in Bedford, Virginia, not only pays tribute to those who made the ultimate sacrifice on June 6, 1944, but also strives to ensure that their stories are told and remembered. With a mission to maintain the memorial and research the names of fallen service members, the foundation has created a comprehensive listing of Allied personnel who lost their lives on D-Day.

With 4,415 men, including 2,502 Americans, memorialized in their necrology database, the foundation underscores the significance of remembrance and education. As the 80th commemoration of D-Day approaches, the foundation continues its efforts to preserve history, passing on the memories of these heroic veterans who fought for freedom. While the number of living WWII veterans diminishes, it becomes our collective responsibility as American citizens to ensure that their stories endure and inspire future generations.
