Not giving anything up- adding a few things to better myself. One is making mass a priority- I have let that slide for a year or so now.

Thanks for sharing some significant events of march 1 Maj Marty Hogan
To be the most significant events were
1. 1815: Napoleon Bonaparte, having escaped exile in Elba, arrives in Cannes, France, and heads for Paris to begin his "Hundred Days" rule. That rule ended with his defeat at Battle of Waterloo which was fought on Sunday, 18 June 1815, near Waterloo in present-day Belgium, which was then part of the United Kingdom of the Netherlands.
2. 1941. Yet another eastern European nation joined the Axis powers of Germany, Italy and Japan. The 'Tripartite Pact' is signed making Bulgaria a part of the Axis Powers. When the Soviets occupied Hungary, Bulgaria and Czechoslovakia after VE day they executed their vengeance on those who fought against them.

As always well versed my friend- if we ever met in person you will have to block time off as I could talk/listen for hours about history
