[Chrysler300] we are lucky - D Day anniversary



we are lucky to be able to enjoy our 50s and later letter cars.

The 60th anniversary of D Day reminds us too many did not come back, others 
carrying wounds that affected the rest of their lives - we owe them a debt 
that can never be forgotten or adequately repaid.  To all those Americans 
that helped Australia in WWII, thank you from me (and untold other grateful 
aussies) who was not born til after, but had a dad who served in japanese 
occupied New Guinea, died young because of this.

Australia only had about 2,500 in the D day landings, but the papers here 
have carried the story of one, a 24 year old Melbourne footballer, D Day his 
birthday.  His role was to go in an unarmed boat close to the big shore guns 
and radio back where the ships guns shells were landing to get the allied 
range correct.  He was eventualy blown out of the water by the huge German 
guns, he credited to be the first aussie killed in D Day.

Lest we never forget.  Our 300S came after that terrible war, are special, 
and we must enjoy them.

Aussie Christopher
