🇺🇸 Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone. He wanted us to answer with “Ahoy-hoy!” Thomas Edison said “Hello!” instead. Hello won. But, Bell kept saying Ahoy-hoy anyway for the rest of his life. Meanwhile, Mr. Burns from The Simpsons has been repping Ahoy-hoy this whole time. 😂

🇺🇸 Blood from D-Day still stains the pews inside a church at Angoville-au-Plain, Normandy. Two medics of the 101st Airborne, Robert Wright and Kenneth Moore, turned this church into an aid station. They laid both American and German wounded upon these benches and fought to save their lives. The stained glass honors the paratroopers who fought here.

🇺🇸 The true story behind the song “Take Me Home, Country Roads” from a WVU graduate The song was released in 1971. WVU began the tradition of singing it at games in 1972. The songwriters, Bill Danoff and Taffy Nivert, got the idea for the song riding down Clopper Road in Montgomery County, Maryland. They are husband and wife. The songwriters have confirmed the song is about West Virginia. It’s not about Western Virginia. Bill originally wanted to write the song about his home state of Massachusetts, but couldn’t get the cadence and syllable count right. Danoff and Nivert opened for John Denver in DC in 1970. Later that night they played the song for Denver who loved it. They all stayed up that night finalizing the lyrics. John Denver had not yet even been to West Virginia when he recorded the song. Blue Ridge Mountains and Shenandoah River were added because they sounded poetic. They are also physically present in Jefferson County, WV. Video: John Denver playing Country Roads at dedication of Mountaineer Field in 1980. It’s a beautiful song and I love hearing it, especially after Mountaineer wins!

🇺🇸 Gettysburg 163 Live: July 2nd, 4:45 PM The Irish Brigade prepares to advance into the deadly Wheatfield. First, they experience an absolute first in U.S. military history. Before they step forward, Father William Corby climbs onto a large boulder. The men stand at order arms as he addresses them. Catholics and Protestants alike then fall to their knees while Father Corby delivers a general absolution. This is the first time such a ceremony has ever been performed in the United States military. It is a powerful and historic moment. Reminding them of their sacred duty, Corby warns that the Catholic Church refuses Christian burial to any soldier who turns his back upon the foe or deserts his flag. Moments later, Hancock orders the Irish Brigade into some of the fiercest fighting of the entire battle.
