D-Day at Normandy, France. Today marks the 65th anniversary of that historic troop landing to drive the Nazi's out of France and to end the war.
Many participants in the invasion were men and women from East Philly. Kensington, Harrowgate, Port Richmond, Fishtown, Northern Liberties, Bridesburg. East Philly was home to a large force of military personnel who either joined or were drafted into the armed forces.
Their dedication for family, country, community carried over into their actions in defeating the Nazi's.
Come and live and work in East Philly the home to many American heroes.
Why by living here and working here you too can become a true American hero. For it is in these working class neighborhoods we found so many brave Americans to fight for freedom.
Onward America and onward East Philly!

June Begins
Today is June 1, 2009.
It is only a day like all the others.
What makes it special is that in its space in time it is unique.
A one of a kind.
There were many things which played out today both good and evil.
Lets begin a new day and emphasis the good things. But at the same time allow ourselves to reflect on the evil things which were done in our name. We need to associate ourselves with all victims to cleanse the particles which clog our breathing and understanding.
Here in East Philly there are many people who are from many parts of the world. By coming together on this June 1 we all can claim our place in time today right here in East Philly.
Although it is only a patch of area in which covers this planet it is special simply because someone announces it so.
I am that announcer. I declare that any thing is possible. The great American experiment is waiting to happen right here in East Philly. We who live and work here can truly claim it.
We can do special things which are only special when placed against other daily events going on around us which in their own right are special, its unhealthy to be biased.
We now must put all of our beliefs into a vehicle and fly it around for all to see.
Good night to all.
