A Day in the Life

 

Friday is D-Day. Eighty-one years ago, our brave soldiers stormed the beaches of Normandy in a well-planned and well-executed attack. It was a huge success and it led to the eventual liberation of France. An important component of the plan was knowing what the weather was going to be. In fact, the attack was delayed at least one day, maybe more due to forecast inclement weather patterns.

So, yeah, a lot of this stuff is still top secret, and, it’s probably none of my business, and we may never know. But let’s say the attack was delayed 3 days. Was the first day attack to be known as “A-Day”, the second day as “B-Day”, etc?

I've always wondered...
