| Re: What is it about March 8th? A cursed day, indeed. Some more March 8th travesty: 1782 - Gnadenhütten massacre: Almost 100 Native Americans in Gnadenhutten, Ohio had their skulls crushed with mallets by Pennsylvanian militiamen. 1906 - Moro Crater Massacre: U.S. troops occupying the Philippines massacre about 600 men, women and children taking refuge in a crater. 1965 - Vietnam War: 3,500 United States Marines arrive in South Vietnam, becoming the first American combat troops in Vietnam. 1974 - Freddie Prinze Jr., American actor, is born.
It's also International Women's Day! |
