Something for the weekend: Two Steps From Hell-Heart of Courage. An evocative tribute to the American soldiers on D-Day who suffered 2,449 killed in action, with an additional 1814 deaths for the Brits, the Canadians and the other Allied nations. It was a high cost, and worth every drop of blood spent. A red day and a victorious one for the good guys. Fewer than one thousand men are still alive who fought their way ashore to commence what General Eisenhower, rightly, called the Great Crusade.
