Blowing up dams is against the Geneva Conventions. I saw comments from the UK Foreign Minister to that effect. Ironic considering 1943 Operation Chastise (“The Dambusters”)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Chastise
No doubt Ukrainian civilians will be killed by this dam attack. Wiki says the 1943 attack by the RAF killed 1600 civilians, including 1000 “enslaved labourers, mainly Soviet”. One wonders if that is true and if so, is part of this also “pay back”? War is Hell.
79 years ago, June 6, 1944: "Operation Overlord" #DDay Allied landings at Normandy. The amphibious assault secured a new western front against the well-entrenched enemy. Following the successful landings, the Allies won #WWII in Europe in 11 months. https://www.army.mil/d-day/ #DDay79 #history

A surprisingly funny, touching view of the #DDay campaign from a reporter in a landing craft awaiting deployment in one of the secondary waves of the Allied invasion. The battle itself is not described -- for these troops, it hasn't begun yet. But given how well we know the carnage that awaited them, this vibrant portrait is also a haunting one. #newyorker #otd #wwii #history #longread

Commemorating D-Day on 79th anniversary of deadly WWII invasion
I had great-uncles, now gone, that were part of the invasion. They would share stories.
I think it is why I get so angry at the commercialization and joviality of Memorial Day weekend. It's more about the first summer party and discount sales now than remembrance. It was commercialized in the late 70's and 80's but nothing like it is now. It was more reverent then, at least here.

I'm sorry, Congressnan, but even though this kind of statistics is way more intelligent than the #GQP's, leave alone #MAGA's, it should not be reported to dishonest means.
Of course, these gains must be seen 👉relative👈 to the #US working-age population of the corresponding years, at a minimum.
Also, figures must be deflated somehow for female participation rates in the workforce, which was all but none-existent prior to #WWII in comparison to the present.

Any ideas on approaches to make an interactive map where I can click on locations or icons next to locations and have pictures or an information box pop up?
The project I have... My Dad was in WWII, never talked about it like so many. After research into unit history we now have dates and unit locations. Letters we were given have dates but not locations.. Now have data to put on a map with location and dates. Idea in my head- create an interactive map of Europe with clickable icons for letters, unit location info, How can I do this easily? #WWII #interactivemap #TechHelpNeeded

In March, finally got "They Called Us Enemy" for classroom library. Lent it to a history teacher b/c students wanted to read - studying re:internment. Had to borrow it back shortly after they finished to lend to a teacher at another high school to use.
Not sure where it is now. I think I lent it back to the first teacher? Point is, I should have gotten 2+ copies.
BTW, we have <1% Asian / AAPI students in the schools. They weren't the ones needing it.

KPIX just ran the documentary news segment below about photos taken of Japanese
Americans living in/near Marysville whose photos were taken (apparently for ID purposes) on or about Feb 1942 when Executive 9066 was signed which forced all Japanese American on the west coast to abandon their homes & businesses in order to be incarcerated in internment camps scattered in desolate areas around the west.
Photos of 80 of those people (who are named) are included in the article below and KPIX is hoping to find the families of these people who may still be living in the SFBA. Please reach out and forward this article to anyone who may know be able to help identify the people in the photos and/or their families.

In January 1944, 68 soldiers left their posts in Scotland & traveled to London demanding to join the British Army.

I’m curious about the opinion of the #histodons and their take on this article on Substack that speaks to the Nazi #fascist rise to power prior to #WWII and the strategy used.
In reading it, there seems to be an almost exact parallel to what’s happening w/ the conservative rhetoric that has been increasing toward #lgbt citizens.
But I’ll leave it to the experts. #Histodon, could you weigh in on this? Are there parallels? If so, how can we stop #fascism in the U.S.?
