The following is an edited transcript of a Morning Wire D-Day Tribute interview between Daily Wire editor-in-chief John Bickley and Michael Reagan, son of the 40th president of the United States.

June 6, 2024, is the 80th anniversary of the day that ultimately turned the tide of the Second Great War: the Allied Forces’ invasion of Normandy. Code-named “Operation Overlord,” the invasion involved 156,000 Allied troops, half of them Americans, who launched a bold assault on five German-occupied and heavily fortified beaches. Morning wire sat down with Michael Reagan, son of America’s beloved 40th President Ronald Reagan, who famously traveled to Normandy four decades ago to honor the brave soldiers who stormed those beaches.
