Turkey buzzards


On this day, apparently according to time-honored turkey-buzzard tradition, the Turkey Buzzards return to Hinckley, Ohio.

And in music history, Lightnin' Hopkins was born on this day, in 1912.

In 1783, George Washington asked his officers to not support the Newburgh Conspiracy, a potential officers’ insurrection due to long-overdue wages. Washington subtly revealed that he had sacrificed much as well, and the officers relented.
