June 25 seems to be a day for big things to happen.

• 1876 – George Armstrong Custer makes the fatal mistake of trying to live up to his grandiose reputation at the Battle of the Little Bighorn
• 1947 – The Diary of a Young Girl was first published, detailing the time that Anne Frank and her family hid from Nazi’s during the Holocaust.
• 1948 – Josef Stalin started learning the lesson that telling other countries “You can’t” doesn’t exactly mean they’ll start doing what you want them to do when the Berlin Airlift began.
• 1950 – North Korea started the Korean War when they invaded South Korea.  That particular war is still on-going, since a formal peace treaty has never been signed.
• 1996 – The Khobar Towers bombing occurred.
