Only 3 Times...Only 3

In all the years since D-Day (June 6, 1944) there are three occasions when the President of the United States did not attend the annual D-Day Memorial Ceremony in Normandy, France that honors the 6,603 American soldiers killed, wounded, captured and missing in action during the Allied invasion of that 50 miles of beachhead.

Those occasions were:

1.
Barack Obama 2010

2.
Barack Obama 2011

3.
Barack Obama 2012

For the past 68 years, all US Presidents, except Obama, have paid tribute to the fallen soldiers killed on D-Day.
This year, instead of honoring the soldiers, he made a
campaign trip on Air Force 1 to California to raise funds for his upcoming re-election campaign.

REMEMBER THIS in NOVEMBER.
