text: this one is for people who are under 30...? without looking it up, can you tell me the significance of these dates. june 6, 1944 and december 7,1941. amazeingly enuff i have encountered several people who have no idea what these dates are all about. june 6,1944 is d-day for europe. allied invasion of normandy. the largest invasion pitting germans and their polish conscripts versus canadians, american,british and assorted other allied forces. this involved massive amounts of paratroopers who were scattered all over the coast due to massive flak. december 7,1941 japanese forces attacked pear harbor. that's hawaii. a japanese naval task force consisting of several carriers and support vessels launched several waves of aircraft sinking the uss arizona and damaging many other battleships. luckily, the us carriers were out at sea. days later, the japanese being to conquer the philippine islands. i think the other date was september 11, 2001. four planes are hijacked. two are crashed into the towers of the world trade center which both collapse. one is crashed into the pentagon. the final plane was brought down as the passengers struggled with the hijackers for control of the plane and crashed in a field. i remember one last date. september 1,1939? i believe that was when germany launched it's blitzkrieg on neighboring poland and began it's conquest of western europe. i can imagine you have encountered people that do not know these dates. boy scout's honor that i did not look any of this information up.
