Well, okay. I'll give ya' Sacagawea. But the rest are more important than me being born? I'm highly insulted. And thank you for the Happy Birthday.

Happy Birthday Pooch.
Ok, I’ll play. How about July 4; my birthday and July 4, 1776.
Good people sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.
Someday your life will flash in front of your eyes. Make sure it is worth watching.

Pooch  Please don't hold it against me. Trump has the same birthdate as me but a year earlier.
There was only 16 squadrons of RAF fighters that used 100 octane during the BoB.
The Fw190A could not fly with the outer cannon removed.
There was no Fw190A-8s flying with the JGs in 1945.

As far as I can remember, the only important event to happen on my birthday was German reunification (October 3).

Happy Birthday Pooch.
Ok, I’ll play. How about July 4; my birthday and July 4, 1776. My worst...I mean first...wife and I were married on July 4, 1976. A date not easily forgotten. And believe me, I've tried. OTOH, I was born on May 31, 1954, exactly 24 years to the day after Clint Eastwood.
SALUTE TO ALL!
