The Sun News showed a lack fo respect to veterans
What a shock to read the June 6th issue of The Sun News and note that the only reference to “D Day,” June 6, 1944, was mentioned in the Peanuts comic strip - located on one of the last pages of the paper.
I was further dismayed by this oversight since just one week earlier, on May 30, the Myrtle Beach community held Memorial Day events honoring the American military servicemen and women who gave their lives to protect the freedoms we enjoy today.
Certainly those who perished on the beaches of Omaha, Juno and other landing and battle areas deserved better recognition. At least I am grateful that Snoopy restored my faith that someone took time to show respect.
