This Day In Wars
Chris Regan of Mass Historia fills you in:
This day in history is usually a good one for fans of war and warlike people. Of course, those “fans” are usually people who have never been involved in a war themselves, apart from the violent struggle to get the remote control away from their wife so that they can return to watching History Channel’s “Hitler Week.”
One side’s humiliating defeat is the other side’s great victory, so someone will be happy.
