Grafton Mayor Mike Morrow: Bronze Rangers Are Climbing the Cliffs Again — The D-Day Memorial That Will Move You to Tears
from The Marc Cox Morning Show
The Marc Cox Morning Show pauses for something truly special — a story about sacrifice, honor, and the kind of American patriotism that never goes out of style. Grafton Mayor Mike Morrow joins to share the breathtaking story behind the National Memorial of Military Ascent, twelve life-size bronze soldiers scaling a Mississippi River bluff in a stunning tribute to the U.S. Army Rangers who stormed the cliffs at Pointe du Hoc on D-Day, June 6th, 1944. From a God-sent moment on River Road to $3.5 million raised, real young men scanned and cast in bronze, and a three-star general set to dedicate the monument — this is what community, faith, and love of country look like in action. And Mike Morrow did it all without taking a single dollar in salary. The dedication is Saturday, June 6th at 9:30 a.m. in Grafton — and if you have any love for the men who gave everything for this country, you need to be there. Don't miss it.
