What else happened today
1916 — World War I: Tanks are used for the first time in battle, at the Battle of the Somme. 1966 – U.S. President Lyndon B. Johnson, responding to a sniper attack at the University of Texas at Austin, writes a letter to Congress urging the enactment of gun control legislation.
