Heart Shield Bible — In the tumultuous times of World War II, soldiers clung to symbols of faith and hope as they faced the uncertainties of battle. Among these symbols was a unique edition of the New Testament, known as the “Heart Shield Bible.” These Bibles, often issued to American soldiers, came with a metal cover designed to be carried in a shirt pocket over the heart. #HeartShieldBible

D-Day: 80th Anniversary – On this date in 1944, Allied forces landed in Normandy on the north coast of France in the early morning hours. The operation, which took months of planning, was instrumental in the Allies gaining the advantage in the war and liberating the village of Saint Mere Eglise.
