Today is D-Day, the 79th anniversary of the invasion on the beaches at Normandy by Allied Troops. It was the ultimate act of bravery, strategy, and camaraderie. Camaraderie is what US Lt. Col Tom Vance calls a "Mission Multiplier." It drives us to perform to the utmost for our mission and for each other. To Never, Ever Give Up.

Today is the 79th anniversary of D-day, the event when Allied forces launched a naval, air, and land assault on Nazi-occupied France. It wasn’t just a pivotal mission for World War II. It was the ultimate act of bravery, strategy, and perhaps most importantly, camaraderie.

When you look around your office, are you seeing beyond your space and supporting your fellow coworker when necessary? Per the Little Blue Book, are you determined to come together, stay together, and work together? To Never (Ever) Give Up? — Barry Simon
General Dwight D. Eisenhower gives the order of the day and missional statement, "Full victory — nothing else" to paratroopers somewhere in England, just before they board their airplanes to participate in the first assault in the invasion of the continent of Europe. So many never made it back, but they also made a powerful statement.
Whatever the mission, at Datamax or at home, make a similar statement ... and never, ever give up on victory. As history teaches us, it will most certainly be worth it!
