THere was a lot of heavy shit that went down the year I was born, but there were one or two good things, too..
On January 4th, Ralph Bunche became the first black person apointed to the US State Department. I'd say that was a good thing, and high time, too)
On March 31, the German Occupation forces in Hungary issued a directive that all Jews must wear a yellow star. (I consider this one seriously heavy shit)
On June 6th, ("D-Day") there was an allied amphibious assualt on beacheads in southern France. (and this is one that you have to consider with mixed feelings - a hell of a lot of guys died that day - on all sides - and let's face it - the average German soldier was just a grunt, with a young wife and maybe a kid at home, whom he had never seen, just like any other GI, from any other country)

An underground hospital in Exeter during an air raid as one of the Cathedral cities especially targetted by the Luftwaffe. The tide of the war was starting to turn in the allies favour. The Germans were held fighting at Stalingrad, and in North Africa. The Japanese were met by British Forces in Burma and by US units in Guadalcanal. The saddest thing - this was the biggest war of all time, is still in living memory, and stupid human beings haven't learned much from it and still allow themselves to be conned into dying for what?

In the year I was born World War II really did start. Just because the USA was two years late joining in (as they were in the First World War) doesn't mean you should dismiss the efforts of other countries to prevent Hitler becoming Führer of the whole world.

Quote by Curlygirly
That damn Manson family. On a "lighter" note, moon landing!
Very wierd though. They mention Apollo 10 coming close to the moons surface in 1969 but only mention Apollo 11 landing on the moon as in the 60's.
They mention the Manson family killing the LaBianca's but no mention of the higher profile victim Sharon Tate.
But glad to see another 69'er!!! HAHA

Jeez, that took a long time...starts off with this big countdown back to 1961, which took about two hours, only to tell me that there was no Google or Lush Stories back then...heck, I could have told you that...
West Side Story apparently won an Oscar, and Bob Dylan hitched a ride to New York...
John F. Kennedy delivers his first State Of The Union address...
Black and white £5 notes cease to be legal tender in the UK...
U.S. Freedom Riders begin interstate bus rides to test the new U.S...
In 1961, a new character entered the world of comic books: Bat-Girl. Bang! Boom! But that's just fiction, right? In the real world, in 1961, Eddie Murphy was born. And Heather Locklear. Barack Obama, too...
A bunch of other equally boring stuff...
Starting to think the only thing interesting that happened that year was me being born...

And before it reached the year that I was born,
I fell asleep.
