    It really dismays me when such instances show the poor instruction in History and Geography in today's schools.  Some of these kids are totally clueless about our past or what is around them..  Annie

    Sadly, I fear not. Public education is in a very sad state in the US these days. It is entirely possible he missed the one day they "taught" WWII. Grrrr.
