Today is also the 81st anniversary of the capture of U-505 near the Canary Islands by TG 22.3 led by Captain Daniel Gallery on USS Guadalcanal. Oh, and also the liberation of Rome by the US Fifth Army led by Lieutenant General Mark Clark.
Both achievements were to be overshadowed within hours…

End of the beginning. Beginning of the end. June 4, 1942, was certainly a day of historic proportions, and worth remembrance. Never forget.
