Every year on Memorial Day, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring.

For the last three years, we have had tens of thousands of people subscribed to a monthly sock subscription that donates all profit to charity.
