Bleak, mountainous Attu Island in Alaska had a population of only about 46 people prior to the Japanese invasion. On June 6, 1942, a Japanese force of 1,100 soldiers landed, occupying the island. One resident was killed in the invasion, the remaining 45 were shipped to a Japanese prison camp near Otaru, Hokkaido, where sixteen died while in captivity. This is a picture of Attu village situated on Chichagof Harbor.

The Cozy Dog Drive In on Route 66 in Springfield, Illinois. While stationed in Amarillo during World War II, Ed Waldmire Jr. and his friend Don Strand developed a battered and French-fried hot dog on a stick. In 1946, he began selling his “crusty curs” from a small shack on Route 66. Ed’s son Bob was a renowned Route 66 artist and free spirit, who died in 2009. A Walgreen’s now occupies the original Cozy Dog site and the restaurant moved next door." Courtesy of Cozy Dog Drive In and the photo is Joe Sonderman's.

All the main gun turrets were placed forward of the bridge. The ships were nicknamed the "Cherry Tree" class because they had been cut down by Washington.

Dalton Gang outlaw Emmett Dalton (second from left) with some of his Hollywood Western friends, including the cowboy detective Charlie Siringo (with rifle), 1927. Source: Kansas State Historical Society
The era Emmett had known as a border outlaw was being translated to the screen, its myths largely intact. It was natural that Emmett would come to Los Angeles with his book about his brothers, where he met the lanky, silent film star William S. Hart, known for the authenticity of what he called “horse operas.” Hart happily added Emmett to his group of Western friends.
In the resulting film, “Beyond the Law,” Emmett played himself as a young bandit and appeared across the country, frequently narrating multiple showings at each movie house. But he couldn’t appear everywhere to support the film, which ended up with a disappointing box-office. Emmett also starred as the “Man of the Desert,” in which a mysterious rider on a dark horse appears out of the hills to aid settlers in trouble. With his wife Julia he settled in a modest stucco house in the Hollywood hills, did other acting work, sold scenarios and increasingly involved himself in real estate.

Manfred von Richthofen, better known to the Allied forces as the 'Red Baron', was shot down and killed near Vaux-sur-Somme, France. He was twelve days short of his 26th birthday.
Debate has ranged for the best part of the following century as to who actually shot down the Red Baron.
Credit went initially to a Canadian pilot, Captain Roy Brown, who was engaged in a dogfight with Richthofen at the time, diving after him low over the Somme River.
However, he was also coming under ground fire from the ridge above the river and the popular theory, widely accepted now, is that the fatal shot was fired by Cedric Popkin, an anti-aircraft machine gunner with the Australian Imperial Forces.
Richthofen was able to make a rough but controlled landing in a nearby field along the Bray-Corbie road, but eye witness reports at the time claim he died almost immediately.
Australian stretcher-bearer Sergeant Ted Smout was among the first to reach the downed aircraft and reported that Richthofen's final word was 'kaputt' ('finished'). He later admitted he had to resist the temptation to souvenir the famed pilot's iron cross medal and flying boots.
In 1964, four years before his own death at the age of 77, Popkin admitted to a reporter for the Brisbane Courier-Mail:
"I am fairly certain it was my fire which caused the Baron to crash, but it would be impossible to say definitely that I was responsible ... As to pinpointing without doubt the man who fired the fatal shot, the controversy will never actually be resolved."
Although Smout resisted the temptation, the Australians - soon joined by others - made short work of claiming their own small piece of the historical trophy, cutting sections of the red fabric from Richthofen's Fokker DR1 triplane, and salvaging other mementoes.
Many of these have made their way back to the Australian War Memorial over the decades, which now holds a number of fragments of the aircraft, wood from the propeller, the plane's compass, control column, and Richthofen's left flying boot.
Here, officers of No.3 Squadron, Australian Flying Corps, examine the Spandau machine guns from the wreckage of Richthofen's now largely destroyed triplane, the remnants visible behind them, at Bertangles the day after his downing.

Spider Rock, Canyon de Chelley National Monument in ArizonaCanyon de Chelly National Monument (/dəˈʃeɪ/ də-SHAY) was established on April 1, 1931, as a unit of the National Park Service. Located in northeastern Arizona, it is within the boundaries of the Navajo Nation and lies in the Four Corners region. Reflecting one of the longest continuously inhabited landscapes of North America, it preserves ruins of the indigenous tribes that lived in the area, from the Ancestral Puebloans (also known as the Anasazi) to the Navajo. The monument covers 83,840 acres (131 sq mi; 339 km2) and encompasses the floors and rims of the three major canyons: de Chelly, del Muerto, and Monument. These canyons were cut by streams with headwaters in the Chuska Mountains just to the east of the monument. None of the land is federally owned. Canyon de Chelly is one of the most visited national monuments in the United States.
