The last date we didn’t have a WWII +70 Years thread was August 15, 2009. According to my calculations that makes today the 1,000th consecutive day with one or more threads. The total number of threads posted during that period, counting sports, movies, radio specials, and any others, is 1,279. Around 13,000 images went into those 1,279 threads, courtesy of my trusty Dell All-In-One scanner – Homer.

Offensive Starts (Brigham) – 2-3
Russians Surging to Battlefields (Parker) – 3
Chinese Strike Foe – 4
War News Summarized – 4
Ottawa Gets Bill on Full Draft; Quebec Leader Quits Government (Philip) – 5
Zionists in Accord in Meeting Here – 6
The Texts of the Day’s War Communiques – 8-9
