The National D Day Memorial is in Bedford, VA, nestled in the Shenandoah Valley. You may wonder why Bedford. Bedford, VA suffered the highest per capita losses in the D Day invasion at Normandy on June 6, 1944. This memorial was constructed to honor all those who lost their lives. I struggled with which pictures to share (since I could only share 4). If you ever have the opportunity, go see it. I cannot express how moving it is. The water in the pool has jets that are set to go off and replicate the bullets hitting the water.The sound is impactful to say the very least.
