Préparez-vous à lʹim-préparable, à lʹhorreur brute, ultime, absolue, quand on envoie au casse-pipe des milliers de jeunes gens pour prendre dʹassaut les plages de Normandie. Nom de code : Opération Neptune. Le Jour J, le D Day, le 6 juin 1944, cʹest le débarquement de Normandie. Une opération militaire alliée amphibie et aéroportée. On va attaquer le Reich allemand par les airs et par la mer et débarquer avec des milliers de soldats. Cʹest le point de bascule de la Seconde Guerre Mondiale. En 1998, un cinéaste américain dans Il faut sauver le soldat Ryan, Saving Private Ryan, rejoue devant ses caméras le débarquement à Omaha Beach avec une floppée de bons acteurs, Tom Hanks en tête. Steven Spielberg filme au plus près, au cœur de la bataille la mort, la rage, la peur, la lâcheté, le courage, la haine. Cʹest du jamais vu. Le réalisme est prégnant. On montre la guerre comme on ne lʹavait pas vue depuis Platoon, comme on ne lʹavait pas vue depuis les films dʹactualités tournés caméra au poing à lʹépoque. Décors réalistes et mission surréaliste quand huit hommes sont désignés pour en sauver un seul qui pourra rentrer en Amérique tandis quʹeux continuent de se battre. Le film pose des questions morales et Steven Spielberg en rend compte, documente, travaille au plus proche de la réalité. A sa sortie, les critiques sont élogieuses. Le film laisse les spectatrices et les spectateurs pantelants. Cʹest un succès commercial, et il remporte de nombreux prix. Nommé pour 11 oscars, Saving Private Ryan (Il faut sauver le soldat Ryan) en reçoit 5 dont celui du meilleur réalisateur pour Steven Spielberg. Sword Beach, Juno Beach, Gold Beach, Omaha Beach et Utah Beach sont nos objectifs. Des plages sur lesquels nous allons toutes et tous débarquer.

At 9AM eastern war time, CBS World News signed on with Douglas Edwards reporting. On D-Day Edwards was twenty-six years old. He'd been hired in 1942 by CBS as a reporter and understudy for John Daly. When Daly was sent overseas to cover the war in 1943 Edwards was promoted to lead The World Today, World News Today, and Report to the Nation. In 1945, Edwards was sent to London to cover the final weeks of the war with Edward R. Murrow. He was then appointed the network's news bureau chief in Paris and assigned to cover post-war elections in Germany and the start of the Nuremberg trials. By this time, fourteen thousand Canadian troops had taken Juno Beach, pressing inland. British and American forces, including those at Omaha, took control of their beachheads. The Allies brought in tanks, tended to the wounded and cleared away mines on the beaches. They also started pressuring German forces at Caen. Hitler finally agreed to send reinforcements to Normandy. Once World News Today signed off Robert Trout was back on the air for the final forty-five minutes of the special news broadcast.

This Canadian actor was most famous for his role as Montgomery Scott (Scotty), the chief engineer of the Starship Enterprise in the television and film series “Star Trek.” He did appear in other TV shows and movies, but was limited due to being typecast. James Doohan in real life was with a Canadian infantry division that landed at Juno Beach on D-Day. He was accidentally hit by six rounds of fire from the gun of a Canadian sentry. A bullet to his chest was stopped by a cigarette case given to him by his brother. One bullet hit his right middle finger, which had to be amputated. He would conceal that hand in the movies, sometimes using a flesh-colored glove. Doohan was part of a radio group, “The Neighborhood Playhouse” which included Leslie Nielsen and Tony Randall. Did James use an accent when he played Scotty? He'll answer that question. Because of the engineer character he played on “Star Trek,” many students pursued careers in engineering. The Milwaukee School of Engineering presented Doohan with an honorary degree in engineering.

Ed Staniowski is a former NHL goalie, playing from 1975-1985, and a former Lieutenant Colonel of the Canadian Armed Forces. He joins this episode of the Boiling Point to discuss the tenets of leadership he's come to value over the years, both in the Armed Forces and the NHL. From coaches to drill sergeants to fellow players and soldiers, Ed speaks to the necessity of humility in a leader, the importance of facing healthy adversity in overcoming obstacles as a team, and the way great leaders generate trust in their followers. Nowadays, Ed is part of a campaign memorializing the Regina Rifles, a regiment which landed at Juno Beach during WWII. The campaign is creating a proper monument for the Rifles at Courseulles-sur-Mer in France, where they landed on D-Day, and the goal is to have it erected on June 6th, 2024- the 80th anniversary of D-Day. Ed also speaks to the importance of this monument, and of honoring the sacrifices made. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In this episode of the podcast with my guest Terri Brault, we discuss Canadian WW2 Normandy sites you can visit. Canadian forces were heavily involved in the D-Day landings on June 6, 1944, which marked the beginning of the end for Nazi Germany. The Canadian 3rd Infantry Division, along with the 2nd Armoured Brigade, landed at Juno Beach, a stretch of coast located between Sword and Gold beaches. Facing heavily fortified German defenses, they experienced fierce resistance, but their courage and determination saw them overcome these formidable obstacles. By the end of the day, Canadian forces had penetrated deeper into France than any other Allied force, a testament to their discipline and valor. Canadian troops also played a significant role in the subsequent Battle of Normandy, a grueling two-month campaign to liberate the region from German occupation. They were central to Operation Totalize, an offensive designed to break through German defenses south of Caen, a strategic city that witnessed some of the war's bloodiest conflicts. Moreover, Canadian soldiers were victims of one of the war's most infamous atrocities at the Abbaye d'Ardenne, where 20 prisoners of war were executed by the 12th SS Panzer Division, a crime later prosecuted as a war crime. Today, the Canadian War Cemetery at Beny-sur-Mer, where about 2,000 soldiers are laid to rest, serves as a somber reminder of the ultimate sacrifice these brave men made in the pursuit of freedom and peace. Their bravery, tenacity, and sacrifice significantly contributed to the successful Normandy campaign, marking a pivotal turn in the course of World War II. Their legacy lives on in the form of numerous memorials, museums, and preserved historical sites in Normandy, and their heroic efforts continue to be honored and remembered by both Canadians and the international community.  Let's talk about the places in Normandy you can visit to honor their sacrifice and valor.

On June 6th, 1944, all the planning of Operation Overlord would be put to the test when over 120,000+ Allied soldiers stormed the beaches of Normandy, France. Their goal was to establish a foothold in occupied France that would allow them to begin pushing the Nazi's back. Standing in their way was Hitler's Atlantic Wall. What took place that day can only be described as the most pivotal point in WW2 as thousands of paratroopers dropped behind enemy lines and infantry stormed the beaches beginning what would be the end for the Third Reich. Tune in to hear about that nightmare of that day and the heroism that followed.

In 1944 the Axis powers of WW2 occupied nearly all of mainland Europe. With no army to fight on the ground in Europe, the Allies need a plan to take the fight to the Nazis. An operation the scale of which had never been seen and has yet to be seen since. To invade Europe would take more than soldiers putting their boots on French soil, you need tanks, vehicles, ammunition, food, medical supplies, clothes and everything else it takes to wage a war. Not to mention doing all of this and keeping it a secret. Overlord is arguably the single. most important military operation in history. Years of planning went into ensuring every detail was covered and every option explored. It turned the tide of WW2 in Europe and began the countdown to the end of the Third Reich. 

On this week's episode, Seth Dillon, the CEO of Babylon Bee, joins us to talk about the importance of satire, and why the left is hellbent on destroying it. We discuss why mockery is not hate speech, what it's like being censored for speaking the truth, and how the absurd has become reality. Finally, Seth shares with us some of his favorite Babylon Bee headlines. Seth Dillon is the CEO of The Babylon Bee, the world's most trusted, factually accurate news source. Taking on the tone of a traditional news media publication, the Bee satirizes real-world events and public figures. Dillon's experience with censorship and de-platforming has placed him on the front lines of the battle for free speech in the public square. He now speaks on college campuses and at conferences across the country about the effectiveness of humor, the moral imperative of mockery, and the dangers of censorship. He occasionally signs off Twitter to enjoy time with his wife and two sons in Juno Beach, Florida.--She Thinks is a podcast for women (and men) who are sick of the spin in today's news cycle and are seeking the truth.

Video of the Week - Bike with Square Tires…That Works!   Endurance News:   WORLD CHAMPIONS, BRAVE DISPLAYS AND RECORD BREAKING CROWDS: 5 THINGS WE LEARNED FROM ARENA GAMES TRIATHLON LONDON   Last week mentioned – American golden couple Chase McQueen and Gina Sereno to complete in the Arena Games Triathlon in London.   It was a fast, frenetic and entirely unpredictable conclusion to the 2023 Arena Games Triathlon powered by Zwift World Championship Series.   From stellar performances to shocks and twists and turns, the race at the sold out London Aquatics Centre had it all.   Here we take a look at five things we learned from the final of Arena Games Triathlon.   LINN ON TOP OF THE WORLD Sophie Linn sparkled in the opening event in Montreal but ultimately faded just a little to finish behind Gina Sereno. However, a fire had clearly been lit as she realised this format could be one to really suit her.   The Australian initially wasn't going to come to London, such was her lack of confidence to secure a World Championship title, but after giving it some thought she committed – and then some.   Arena Games Triathlon, Grand Final, London, Uk, 2023, Linn put in a significant training block to give herself the best chance of success, and really delivered on the day. She was not only to eventually take the world title, but made a race that could have been dominated by Beth Potter and Cassandre Beaugrand ultra competitive.   Linn may not have started the Series as any kind of favourite, but is now an official World Champion.   HENRI'S COMEBACK COMPLETE Arena Games Triathlon has really been Henri Schoeman's redemption story.   Three years of injury and illness have dogged a man so used to success at the very highest level of the sport. His road to recovery has been bumpy, and hugely emotional. There was a time he thought he may never get the chance to race again.   Arena Games Triathlon, London, Uk, 2023 But Schoeman stuck in there, even during the dark moments, and has got his reward.   He really went the hard years for it too, racing all three events even when mathematically he didn't need to.   But this was always about more than racing, it was about proving to himself he can have a second coming in the sport. And how he did that.   BETH IS A BOSS Beth Potter may not have raced enough Arena Games events this year to be able to defend her title, but she showed her class in smashing the London event, and in front of a baying British crowd.   Potter has achieved so much in Arena Games racing, but she had never actually beaten Cassandre Beaugrand when the pair have raced together. She put that right in emphatic style with a convincing victory.   GUSTAV'S CHAMPION MENTALITY They say a champion never quits. Gustav Iden proved why he already has some of the biggest titles in the sport in his collection by proving what it takes to be the best.   The weekend presented him with so many challenges, A delayed flight and a missed briefing saw him start his heat – the so-called ‘Heat of Death' – with a five second penalty before he had even stepped on the race course.   He pushed hard but ultimately was in the repechage. He was – in Arena Games terms – a mile back coming out of the swim in Stage 2 and his exit before even making the finals looked all but assured.   However, he dug in, pushed himself to the absolute limit and was ready as soon as there was a sign of weakness to pounce.   After such efforts to get to the final there was a suspicion he could come last, but that was proved to be nonsense as she actually got himself to fifth by the end of the final. A remarkable performance, that displayed a quite remarkable mentality.   ELECTRIC ATMOSPHERE The London Aquatics Centre and the British crowd ensured an incredible day for triathlon. The venue was sold out, with a record 2,000 fans in attendance. The atmosphere was loud and happy, and the athlete thrived on it.   Fans turned up to support Para Triathlon as well and were treated to some stunning performances, including a virtuoso display from Grace Norman.   The venue is fast establishing itself as the pinnacle of Arena Games, but with more fans than ever packing in for the events across the Series, it is clear that triathlon is growing.   https://www.dcrainmaker.com/2020/08/super-league-triathlon-arena-games-behind-scenes-triathlon.html     IRONMAN Brings New Voices to Call in Finishers TAMPA, Fla. (April 13, 2023) – The list of voices calling athletes across IRONMAN® and IRONMAN® 70.3® finish lines will be expanding in 2023 to include some familiar voices as well as new ones. As the IRONMAN community bids farewell to Mike Reilly, the most famous voice in the sport of triathlon who has retired following a storied career spanning 33 years, athletes can expect to hear a variety of different voices greeting them at IRONMAN and IRONMAN 70.3 events over the coming year.   In addition, more women announcers will be picking up a microphone at IRONMAN and IRONMAN 70.3 events in 2023, including for the first time ever, a fully female announcing crew calling athletes in at the 2023 IRONMAN Maryland triathlon, part of the VinFast IRONMAN North America Series on Sept. 16, 2023.   “There's nothing quite like those final moments before an athlete crosses an IRONMAN finish line,” said Shane Facteau, Chief Operating Officer for The IRONMAN Group. “Our athletes work for months, and sometimes even years, to hear the illustrious words, ‘You are an IRONMAN!' made famous by our beloved Mike Reilly. While we will all miss Mike, we are proud to bring a diverse cast of emcees to our events in 2023 and we know our athletes are keen to meet these announcers as they help enhance their race day experience.”   Mike Reilly also shared his appreciation for the craft and the impact this crop of race announcers can have as they encourage athletes at events. “For over 30 years, it has been an incredible honor to support IRONMAN athletes as they cross finish lines worldwide,” said Reilly who is also in the IRONMAN Hall of Fame for his contributions to the sport. “I have no doubt that the dynamic and diverse team of announcers assembled will continue to uphold the legacy of IRONMAN and create unforgettable experiences for competitors and spectators. When you hear those powerful and life changing words, ‘You are an IRONMAN' at your next finish line, know that they are delivered with passion and a deep commitment to your success.”   Below are many of the iconic voices and new announcers that athletes can expect to see and hear at IRONMAN and IRONMAN 70.3 events this year.    Americas Jill Blankenburg –  Jill is now a seven-time IRONMAN finisher, beginning in 2009 when she completed IRONMAN Florida and since then has gone on to cross IRONMAN finish lines in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho; Lake Placid, N.Y.; Whistler B.C. Canada; Louisville, Kentucky; Cozumel, Mexico and Panama City Beach, Florida for a second time in 2019.  Jill is no stranger to the microphone – she's been a radio DJ, recorded lead and backing vocals for various music projects and fronted a rock and roll band for many years. Jill was delighted for the opportunity to combine her experience on the mic and her passion for triathlon when she began announcing multisport races in 2016 – and she's often called upon to sing the National Anthem at her events. Jill joined IRONMAN's announcing team in 2022 is proud to be one of the new female voices on the IRONMAN stage.   Otton Bernardelli –  In 2011, during a 10k race, the announcer failed to show up, and Otton had to step up to the microphone to lead 5,000 athletes in the event. This experience made him realize that he wanted to pursue a career in sports announcing. Four years later, in 2015, he received his first opportunity to announce an IRONMAN 70.3 event. Since then, he has worked alongside Dave Ragsdale and Tony Lugo at IRONMAN 70.3 Miami in 2017, and proudly shared the microphone with William Bonder at all IRONMAN 70.3 and full-distance IRONMAN events in Brazil for the past 7 years.   William Bonder – Javier Clavelo  Nick Edwards  Carissa Galloway . She has also been one of the most recent additions to the world championship announcing team and will help call athletes in at the women's IRONMAN World Championship in Kailua-Kona, Hawai`i.   Eric Gilsenan – Many have heard Eric at IRONMAN Village expos during past world championship events, and he will expand his role at the VinFast IRONMAN and IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship events in 2023.   Erick González Velázquez – Originally from Mexico City, Erick has been the voice of IRONMAN in Mexico. Two of his passions outside of being an announcer are playing the guitar and heading out every morning for a run with his Husky, Cookie.  Dave Kappas   Rachel Kazez Andrea Kooiman Dave Latourete Tony Lugo   Sara McLarty – Sara McLarty has been racing triathlons since she was a child. She enjoyed a successful 15-year professional career representing the United States at 13 world championships in seven different sports and raced on every continent with the exception of Antarctica. After retiring in 2015, she transitioned into coaching and athlete support with the USA Triathlon elite squad, culminating with a trip to the Tokyo Olympics 2020. Today, her passion is with the SLAP Tri Team #SLAPPERS in Central Florida helping adult, youth and junior high-performance athletes achieve their goals and dreams!   Dave Ragsdale – Dave has been around the Endurance Industry long enough to remember grabbing a popsicle stick at the finish line of a college cross country meet. After a stint in corporate sales in New York City, he moved to South Florida with a buddy so that they could train year-round for the then emerging sport of triathlon. Since then, he's been in the Event Management business, sold media for Florida Sports Magazine, a precursor to Competitor Magazine and Rock ‘n Roll Running Series and headed up a 6-person sales team with The IRONMAN Group. Currently, Dave helps connect brands and events in the active lifestyle space. Dave's time on the microphone dates back to his earliest days in the event management business, when he realized that holding a microphone and talking for hours was a lot easier than moving cones or barricades. Thankfully, he had the skill needed to succeed in that spot and in his more than 20 years as an announcer, he figures to have greeted close to 500,000 athletes to the line. Born in Minneapolis, Dave grew up in Pleasantville, NY was educated at Colgate University. He and his wife, Molly, live in Juno Beach, Florida.   Colleen Rue Tom Ziebart     Mental Mastery With Mark Allen Week 7: Swim Speed Reset Six-time Ironman World Champion shares what he calls the "ultimate race-prep drill" to find a new physical and mental gear in the swim. APRIL 10, 2023 MARK ALLEN   As a triathlete, you likely do a ton of steady-state swimming, and not a lot of top-end swimming. That's good for building endurance, but as you head into race season, it's good to reset your body's gauge of what it can do at a fast speed – physically and mentally. That's why this week's installment of our nine-week Mental Mastery series will take you to the pool for a fast and furious workout.   Going fast presents perhaps the biggest challenge to keeping your three pillars of Mental Mastery dialed in and active. Hard efforts can be uncomfortable, and physical discomfort can be a distraction to staying locked into a champion's Mental Mastery focus. This swim workout will blend physical and mental skills to ensure you get the hang of this demanding aspect of athletics.   These types of sets were extremely important for me to do from time to time even when I was getting ready for an Ironman. The intensity of short and fast is like a concentrated form of what takes place over a much longer period of time in a race.   This type of set also reinforced my ability to do the ultimate athletic race prep multitask, which was to go fast but to also stay focused on economy of motion, on keeping my mental chatter to as close to zero as possible, and to resetting my fast gauge.   Sometimes, just thinking about a hard workout can be a mental roadblock. I would always have to rein in my anxiety and the anticipation of how the set would feel, and just launch into doing it. Remember: It's always so much easier to deal with it while doing the set, than it is to let your mind spiral about what-ifs. The what-ifs in your head are almost always worse than how it actually turns out in real life.   Before we get to the workout and the Mental Mastery drills, let me remind you again what the three pillars of mental mastery are:   Body Awareness- This is developing the ability to be aware of how your body is moving, especially when you are fatiguing or going at a very fast pace or high-power output.   Internal Dialogue- This is being aware of when chatter is getting in the way of performance and developing the ability to change the channel quickly to a space that supports your physical efforts rather than weakening them. Mental Race Prep- This is remembering what the day-to-day work is going toward and using that vision to propel you to your personal best in your pursuit of the extraordinary.     What's New in the 303: How do you know when it's time to replace your helmet? 303 Endurance | How do you know when it's time to replace your helmet?   By: A.V. Schmit   Well, there is one obvious reason why you should replace your helmet — A crash. No matter the severity, a crash indicates a mandatory helmet replacement. It makes sense, when you consider all bike helmets are single-use pieces of safety equipment.   A compressed foam impact-absorption area can often be invisible from the outside. Photo: Bicycle Helmet Safety Institute.   They are not designed, nor intended to absorb the energy from multiple impacts. Even in what appears to be a minor impact, the integrity of the internal structures within the helmet may be compromised and be unable to perform when called upon in a supplemental impact.   But there is good news, well, kind of. Many helmet manufacturers offer a discount to replace a crash-damaged helmet. Giro offers a 30% discount as a crash-replacement incentive. To access the discount, you can call their 1-800 number or use an online form on their website.   Other circumstances, like accidentally leaving your helmet in an excessively hot car or truck, cause not so obvious reasons to replace your helmet. Extremely high temperatures, such as those experienced in the southern United States in the summer months, can create temperatures that can damage the impact absorbing foam that make up many modern road and mountain bike helmets.   “Excessive heat can damage your helmet. For example, in direct sunlight a dark gear bag, the interior of a car, or an automobile trunk can get hot enough to cause heat damage (damaged helmets will appear to have uneven or bubbly surfaces).”   Bell Helmets FAQ   Excessive heat, exposure to caustic chemicals, and impacts both on and off the bike, are all circumstances that can necessitate replacing your bike helmet.   So, you have not crashed your helmet or let it cook in a hot car, how do you know if you should replace it?   “We encourage riders to replace their helmet at least every 3 to 5 years,” said Tara L. Giro Consumer Services Representative. “At Giro, our focus is safety. With the advances in safety technology, we feel that is an appropriate range for the usable life of a helmet, barring a crash.”   UV, Ultra Violet, light can degrade a helmet's polycarbonate shell, but this takes an extended period of time out in the sunlight to occur. Most helmet shells incorporate a chemical UV inhibitor in the material that resists UV damage. Even with that, an extended period of time in the sun or high-altitude exposures can damage the shell of the helmet, as evidenced by fading color or cracks in the shell.   If you observe either of these situations, it's time to replace your helmet.   So that should give you some general guidelines as to what can damage your helmet, and when it makes sense to replace it. If you are unsure about the condition of your helmet, most manufacturers have a 1-800 number listed on their website where you can seek additional advice.   And… when you do get a new helmet, mark the month and year on the interior with a permanent marker somewhere so you know when you put it into service.     Video of the Week: Insane Square Cycling     Closing: Thanks again for listening in this week.  Please be sure to follow us @303endurance and of course go to iTunes and give us a rating and a comment.  We'd really appreciate it! Stay tuned, train informed, and enjoy the endurance journey!

"We had to keep under cover. Meanwhile there were other soldiers who had caught the bullet and they were either lying dead or they were wounded. So it was a pretty rough landing." That's what 98 year old veteran, Jim Parks, said when he recounted the day he and the Royal Winnipeg Rifles, who he was enlisted with, stormed Juno Beach on D-Day in 1944. Jim is about to be featured in an upcoming documentary, and joined Alex to talk about his experiences and what he hopes people get out of his service and story.

The US Navy's recruiting slogan used to be, "It's not just a job, it's an adventure!" Sometimes that applies to this podcast, too. This week Toby comes to us from Mexico City and James from rural England where broadband is non-existent and hard drives go to die. After taping on Monday, James' computer committed seppuku, leaving us without a show. But we've gotten the band back together and we're here with your weekly fix. It's a North American sandwich to start off - Toby talks about his trip to Mexico and then the guys launch into the "state of emergency" in Canada. What has happened to the country that produced the Hundred Days campaign, the Raid on Dieppe and the storming of Juno Beach on D-Day? On the domestic front we talk about Prince Andrew's out-of-court settlement with Virginia Giuffre in the Jeffrey Epstein scandal. Finally in Culture Corner we all contemplate "The Jack Reacher Diet."
