That rocks my heart with the monotonous languor. D Day is here.

I got to wondering, earlier today, how many of the people who were actually at Normandy on the day itself are still around, on the beaches or, for that matter, up to Résistance activities at bridges and similar slightly inland in the lead-up. I don't have an answer, but it can't be that many. That's a sobering thought.
