Apparently, the folks who run the Google Doodle consider the 'First Drive-In Theater' more important than D-DAY.

68 years ago today was one of the most significant days in America's history - D-Day. But 79 years ago today, the first drive in movie theatre opened. Google picked, as it always does, the fun and light hearted even to celebrate with a special Google logo, aka Doodle.

So get past the fact Google doesn't have a logo for D-Day.



D-Day was the beginning of the end for the Nazi empire:

The Normandy landings, codenamed Operation Neptune, were the landing operations of theAllied invasion of Normandy, in Operation Overlord, during World War II. The landings commenced on Tuesday, 6 June 1944 (D-Day), beginning at 6:30 am British Double Summer Time (GMT+2). In planning, D-Day was the term used for the day of actual landing, which was dependent on final approval.

    Google is dissing one of the greatest moments in our history. Without D-Day, we would all be under Nazi control. Wait a minute, if Obama wins in November, we may yet be under a Dictatorship. obama dictator

    No comparison. If anyone at Google had a single unbiased thought they could have used an image of a drive-in screen showing 'The Longest Day' or 'Saving Private Ryan". Problem solved.

    10. National Socialists have feelings too.

    9. Priorities. Bad ones.

    8. WWII Veterans aren't trending upward.

    7. Google considers itself above mere patriotism.

    6. Couldn't come up with a cute war animation.

    5. Drive-Ins... that's what the WAR was all about!

    4. If everyone would just ignore our nation's history, maybe it will go away.

    3. The Hollywood Lobby - it's that strong.

    2. Mixed up the dates when they Googled it.



    1. Most Google employees were born in an era where *nothing* is
    deemed to be more important than entertainment. Welcome to
    "Generation Id".

    I cannot believe how many people ignored the day, especially our POTUS.
    A simple single sentence statement would have been better than absolute silence.

    So many brave soldiers lost their lives on D-Day. Certainly I think that day in history is much more important than a drive in theater.

    Ask the people of Europe which is most important, Drive-In movies were fun but had no lasting interest. NO one sacrificed their life so we could watch a movie outdoors but many gave their life for Freedom!
