The site is magnificant. It overlooks Bedford and the mountains.

My father's cousin, Norman Bufe, died on June 6, 1944 on the beaches of Normandy. I never heard of this Memorial until the 65th anniversary of D-Day was approaching. My mother contributed annually to the World War II Memorial, and I'm sure she would have done the same for the D-Day Memorial. This cause is now on my list. Joann Bufe Marksberry
