HONORING D-DAY: A LEGACY OF BRAVERY AND SACRIFICE
Today, we honor the brave souls who changed the course of history on D-Day, June 6, 1944. On this day 80 years ago, Allied forces stormed the beaches of Normandy, France, in a courageous effort to liberate Europe from the grip of N**i tyranny during World War II.
D-Day marked a pivotal moment in the war, symbolizing the resilience, sacrifice, and unity of nations united against oppression. Thousands of Allied soldiers from the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, and other nations bravely faced unimaginable odds to secure freedom for future generations.
Their unwavering courage and sacrifice serve as a poignant reminder of the immense price of freedom and the enduring power of hope in the face of darkness. Today, we honor their legacy and express our deepest gratitude to those who made the ultimate sacrifice for liberty.
_________________________________________________________________________________________
"Soldiers, Sailors and Airmen of the Allied Expeditionary Force: You are about to embark upon the Great Crusade, toward which we have striven these many months. The eyes of the world are upon you. The hope and prayers of liberty-loving people everywhere march with you.
Your task will not be an easy one. Your enemy is well trained, well equipped and battle-hardened. He will fight savagely.
But this is the year 1944! The tide has turned! The free men of the world are marching together to victory!
I have full confidence in your courage, devotion to duty and skill in battle.
We will accept nothing less than full victory!
Good luck! And let us all beseech the blessing of Almighty God upon this great and noble undertaking." — Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower, Supreme Allied Commander, 6 June 1944. https://youtu.be/fQ7IKM-jiJI
"These are the men who took the cliffs. These are the champions who helped free a continent. These are the heroes who helped end a war." — President Ronald Reagan

*HONORING OUR FALLEN HEROES*
"Our flag does not fly because the wind moves it. It flies with the last breath of each soldier who died protecting it."
On this Memorial Day, we gather to honor the ultimate sacrifice made by our fallen heroes. SMA cadets in grades 6-12, their families, alumni, staff, and board members stand together in remembrance of those who have given their lives for our freedoms during the Memorial Day Parade in Downtown Sarasota.
We recognize that our liberty comes at a great cost and are committed to upholding the values of respect, honor, and integrity. As we pay tribute to these brave individuals, we reaffirm our dedication to the pursuit of happiness and the freedoms they fought to protect.
Thank you to all for joining us in this solemn remembrance and for carrying forward the legacy of those who have served.
