Although I was not yet born, this day in history caused such heartache in my life to come. My Father went and was in terrible hand to hand combat. He was never the same when he returned and I think it's one of the reasons my Mother died. All because a country wanted to control the world. A tragedy but not unlike human nature in general. Someone is always trying to control someone else.
I wish we could live in harmony but as long as we have people, we can't.
