June of 1944, the British 1st Special Service Brigade storms Sword Beach in Normandy.

As they fight ashore, in their midst a man wearing the Cameron kilt his father wore in World War 1 calmly marches back and forth along the sand playing the bagpipes.

There are videos and a lot of links in the article, so please take a moment to go and read the entire post.  Fascinating story.  I think you will be glad you did, especially you former and current military types.

It just seems a little more sad when it is someone who has made Sacrifices for a greater good.

A veteran is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America ' for an amount of 'up to and including my life.' That is Honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it.'
