does boggin not pay attention in history, man i learned that by the time i was 10

 

[Insanejughead]

I know all about D-day. It interested me and still does by how we were able to overtake that stretch of beach against a fully prepared German army.


I also remember this day because I put on my first stripe (E-2) two years ago. Hahaha, I'm glad I'm not superstitious. 6/6/06.... Whew...

 

[crbnunit]

So, for you, the "E" in E-2 stands for EVIL! LOL!

Dusto2: I dont do history

That is sad, this was a very major event.

I am a history nut, especially WWII vehicles (planes, ships, tanks...)
