Today is the 80th anniversary of the day that ultimately turned the tide of the second great war,

the Allied Forces Invasion of Normandy. Code-named Operation Overlord, the invasion involved 156,000 ally troops, half of them

Americans, who launched a bold assault on five German occupied and heavily fortified beaches.

In this bonus episode, we sit down with Michael Reagan, son of America's beloved 40th

President Ronald Reagan, who famously traveled to Normandy four decades ago to

honor the brave soldiers who stormed those beaches. I'm Daily Wire Editor-in-Chief

There's a million people there right now. There's 46,000 people there right now guarding the

million people and the president who's going to be arriving. It is a huge, huge day, this 80th anniversary of D-Day.

I've been there on two or three occasions.

It's been large, but this one is humongous.

Now many have commented that today's youth and military look a lot different than the

generation that stormed the beaches.

What aspect of the greatest generation are missing that you think need to be brought back into today's culture.
