On June 6, 1944 the Allied Forces of Britain, America, Canada, and France attacked German forces on the coast of Normandy, France. With a huge force of over 150,000 soldiers, the Allies attacked and gained a victory that became the turning point for World War II in Europe. This famous battle is sometimes called D-Day or the Invasion of Normandy.
Veterans, world leaders and hundreds of thousands of visitors from all over the world are at the beaches of Normandy today to honor the 70th anniversary of the D-Day invasion.
Do you have relatives that were involved with D-Day/The Invasion of Normandy?
It seems that Clay Aiken is roaming the east coast, working hard to get everything set up for his campaign for North Carolina’s District 2 Representative in Congress.

Wherever Clay was on Thursday, he met this gentleman who posted the following on twitter…

On Thursday, the first round of the 2014 Major League Baseball draft took place. The Houston Astros had the No. 1 pick and they chose Brady Aiken.
Oh, boy!!! Twitter had so much fun with this pick. The following are only a few of the many tweets that cropped up. The majority were fun and lighthearted. I laughed. I hope you will too!!
