Today marks the 75th adversary of D-Day. This of course is one of the most important days of World War 2. For any of you who do not know the history of this day I suggest clicking here.
It is sadly rare for a newspaper comic strip to salute this day, but Charles Schultz did just that with his Peanuts comic strip. Snoopy is of course more associated with WW1 than WW2. He was a WW1 flying ace who went up against the Red Baron. These strips were of course completely played for comedy and were often hilarious. Two strips Charles Schultz's made remembering D-Day featuring Snoopy would be done in a more serious matter. Here are those strips.
June 6, 1998

Charles Schultz also made some strips about D-Day with Snoopy that had a much more comedic tone. Including a series of strips that ran from June 6-11, 1994. Here are those.
