Historical Outings And Other Events For 2015

I am back with a new list for a new year.  It is 2015 and this year we will see the close of the Bicentennial of the War Of 1812 and the close of the Sesquicentennial of the American Civil War while we will see the continuation of the World War I Centennial.  2015 will also see the 150th Anniversary of the assassination of Abraham Lincoln, the 70th Anniversary of the dropping of the atom bombs over Japan in World War II, the 200th Anniversary of the Second Barbary War and the 210th Anniversary of the end of the First Barbary War.  As always, throughout the year, I will be updating this list as information pours in.
