Yes: sad for the German Air Force. The day the Third Reich lost the chance to win WWII. It was Battle of Britain Day, or at least an anniversary of it. |

Well, it depends on how you look at it. My grandfather died on my 17th birthday. I am his eldest grandchild and his only grandaugher. We were quite close. But He had been suffering dreadfully from viciously aggressive lung cancer - it must have been oat cell looking back - and I feel like my birthday had the power to open the door to Heaven for him.
