Meet Virginia's Newest Neighbor - Stalin At D-Day Memorial



The small town of Bedford, VA has put a bust of Stalin with it's D-Day Memorial.  21 men from that small town lost their lives in Normandy, so the town square has erected a memorial to the sacrifice of these brave men who fought for freedom against the Nazi's. 

While it is true that Stalin and The Soviet Union fought on the same side during WWII, they were not at D-Day.  So why the director of the memorial felt that this was a necessary addition to the memorial is beyond comprehension.
