Attorney General Pam Bondi released the following statement regarding the 74th anniversary of the Battle of Normandy:
“Seventy-four years ago today, brave Americans and allied forces stormed the beaches of Normandy—my Uncle Raymond, an 18 year-old Army private, was one of them. Days after the battle, he was critically wounded and later died from his injuries. Although I never knew my Uncle Raymond, I am immensely proud to call him my uncle and eternally grateful for his sacrifice and the sacrifices of all our veterans and service members who put their lives on the line so we can live free.”
