We remember July 4th and August 24th separately, but we can remember May 8th together

Afk for a year or so.  The name of a gun turret in game.  Falanx, huh? :banana:
Apparently I'm in the 20th FG 'Loco Busters', or so the legend goes.

Incorrect.

The Act Of Union between Scotland and England was signed in 1707 - a full 80 or so years before American independence. America gained independence from the United Kingdom - including Scotland, not from England.

Curiously, the US citizenship test gets this wrong as well:

Q: From which country did the United States of America gain independence?
Was it:
A: France
B: Germany
C: Spain
D: England

Aparently they have a bit of a hissy-fit when you add :

E: None of the above

Have a great holiday folks - happy 4th
