Operation Evergreen Overlord

n honor of the 75th anniversary of the invasion of Normandy (aka Operation Overlord), The Mission Continues is partnering with multiple agencies and veterans organizations across the PNW to remember this historic event. For Pride 2019, The Mission Continues will organize a beach clean up to remember those who participated in Operation Overlord.
