Okay, I'll date myself with this. VE, (Victory in Europe)
day. I was a little kid, but everyone was cheering and lighting
firecrackers. My Mother told me that now my dad would be coming
home. (Patton's Third Army).

Wow, I thought I was dating myself with JFK. I was sick laying on the couch when it came on TV. I think it caused a tremendous repercussion in the world...

I'm a little (ahem) younger so don't flame me for mine...but it was Challenger. I was in eight grade and remember it to this day. I think it made my aware of our mortality.
The fall of the wall was a big one too. Still remember watching it on CNN.
Obviously, 9/11.

So many things stand out in our lives. It seems odd sometimes... You know the sore you went to when you were a kid is now a bank or parking lot... Make ya wonder how good progress is...
