I feel really chagrined that I forgot the start of WW2 in Europe (I'm one of those that counts the start of the war at the Japanese invasion of Manchuria on July 7, 1937). Still, thanks for the reminder. Makes me wonder what my 12-year-old father would have thought, even if the U.S. wouldn't enter the war until December of 1941.
