When I was growing up, most of us knew certain dates and events. For example, my brother’s birthday was the day after one of the most important dates- 7 December. The day that President Roosevelt declared would forever remain “in infamy”. Or, the week before Flag Day (that’s 14 June, should you have fallen prey to the current ignorance) was D-Day, the 6th of June. (Do I have to tell you that this was the turning point for World War II, the day that the “Allies” launched a most audacious raid on Nazi-held France [Europe], with some 210,000 casualties during the battle to obtain a foothold in Normandy.)
