History Trivia

Martha Custis Washington was our nation’s first First Lady, but she wasn’t referred to as that. Most called her Lady Washington and some even called her Our Lady Presidentess.

The term First Lady wasn’t used regularly until the Presidency of James Buchanan, who was bachelor. His niece, Harriet Lane, served as White House hostess and was referred to as The First Lady.

Nagasaki, a significant port city with around 263,000 residents, housed major military installations, including two Mitsubishi factories. Up until then, it had largely escaped damage from American conventional bombings, much like Hiroshima. The impact of the atomic bomb would be unmistakable. The second bombing conveyed a clear message that the United States likely possessed additional atomic weapons and was prepared to deploy them rapidly to force Japan into surrendering.

Today, let's take a moment to remember August 6, 1945, a day that changed Hiroshima and the world forever. With a population of about 350,000, the city was a military and trading hub. The atomic bombing's impact was devastating, with around 140,000 people having lost their lives by the end of 1945. Today is a sobering reminder of the cost of war, the resilience of those who survived and 80 years since we marked the beginning of the atomic age.

This year marks the 80th Anniversary of the atomic bombings of Japan during WWII.
Did you know? Kokura, sitting at the northern tip of Japan's Kyushu island, was right in the crosshairs during WWII. It housed a massive military arsenal, making it a prime target for the U.S. atomic bomb plans. Amazingly, Kokura dodged devastation not once, but twice.

Back in 1872, President Ulysses S. Grant got a taste of justice after he was caught speeding through the streets of Washington D.C. in his horse-drawn carriage. The police officer who fined him $20 didn’t know he was President Grant. Talk about putting the pedal to the metal—or, in this case, the horse to the trot!

After President McKinley was assassinated in 1901, the Secret Service began protecting the U.S. President full-time. This decision came after three tragic assassinations in just 36 years.
