This Day in History
1699:
The Treaty of Karlowitz ends the war between Austria and the Turks.
1863: General Joseph Hooker assumes command of the Army of the Potomac following Ambrose Burnside. 1942: American Expeditionary Force lands in Northern Ireland. 1943: The first OSS (Office of Strategic Services) agent parachutes behind Japanese lines in Burma. 1945: Soviet troops enter Auschwitz, Poland, freeing the survivors of the network of concentration camps. Auschwitz was a group of camps, designated I, II, and III. There were also 40 smaller "satellite" camps. 1945: The most decorated soldier of WWII, American Lt. Audie Murphy, is wounded in France. Perhaps as interesting as his service record and later film career was his public admission that he suffered severe depression from post traumatic stress syndrome, also called battle fatigue, and became addicted to sleeping pills as a result. This had long been a taboo subject for veterans. 1951: U.S. warships bombarded Inchon for the second time during the war. The first was during the initial allied invasion, Sept. 15, 1950. 1953: Surface ships blasted coastal targets as the USS Missouri completed a 46-hour bombardment of Songjin. 1953: The last F4U Corsair rolled off the Chance Vought Aircraft Company production line. Despite the dawning of the jet age, this World War II fighter remained in production due to its vital close-air support role in the Korean War. Almost 12,000 Corsairs were produced in various models. 1970: U.S. Navy Lt. Everett Alvarez Jr. spends his 2,000th day in captivity in Southeast Asia. First taken prisoner when his plane was shot down on August 5, 1964, he became the longest-held confirmed POW in U.S. history. Alvarez was released in 1973 after spending over eight years in captivity. |

All the way to the Bank, and the grocery store and the international arms conferences.
Actually i very much believe this, one cause of past info that has been in the news over the years. And secondly, if anyone doesn't believe this that's fine, but when 9/11 happened my friend and i were pulled into OSI to assist with locating terrorists via psychic powers. Yes i know it sounds far fetched by China was one of the countries that poped up when asked who was suppling them arms, harboring terrorists, and such. The other countries that popped up were France, some parts of Egypt, as well as some groups in Germany and Italy.
How about that. What in the world are we doing in Iraq?
