June 6, 1944 – D-Day

D-Day was the largest single-day amphibious assault in World War II. Over 160,000 Soldiers, 5,000 Ships, and 13,000 Aircraft were involved in this battle. Also more than 9,000 Allied (Which means American, or British) Soldiers were killed or wounded in D-Day. This battle allowed over 100,000 soldiers to continue on and march forward to defeat Hitler. This is an important day in world history and American history. For more information about D-Day.

We have all seen the cute little images that Google uses instead of its normal Google image on special days. Google has done images for MLK Day, Earth Day, Christmas, Thanksgiving, and many others but on June 6th 2009 what image does it have? Tetris’ 25th Anniversary. Tetris! Are you kidding me Google! June 6th is D-Day and Google commemorates Tetris. As an American Citizen I hope that you are just as annoyed with this as I am. I hope that Google will not make a mistake like this again.
