Ocean Buoy
One of the many ocean buoys along Long Island heading west.
This one, #10, is off Brooklyn, which is technically part of our "long" island.
This was shot before "hurricane" Sandy so this view is very different today.
The area was flooded and many homes were washed away.

D-Day, June 6th, 1944
Do not forget the invasion of Normandy, 1944.
The men who were there, lived with that traumatic experience their entire lives.
They are now in their 90s, if they have not yet died of old age, but the memories of June 6th are burned in their hearts and minds and will never be forgotten.
