On this day in 1863, lead elements of the Union and Confederate armies began descending on this little town in Pennsylvania. Setting conditions for the largest battle ever fought in the western hemisphere.

Four years ago today, 13 service members, including Cpl. Humberto A. Sanchez from Logansport, IN, lost their lives in the Abbey Gate terrorist attack during the Biden Administration's catastrophic withdrawal from Afghanistan. I had the honor of meeting with Cpl. Sanchez's family last year during the Congressional Gold Medal ceremony, which posthumously honored these 13 heroes. We must never forget their courage and their sacrifice.

Lines for My Last Day, Whenever It May Come All I wanted was to say a few things clearly: the way a river listens, the green of a door in the evening, the way we carry our absences like a winter coat loaded with stones. I tried. I did my small work. At the end, let me become the wind I loved. Let me at least have lived my life. With this heart, with this body of hollows. With this mind of madness and honey. And these hands, these torn hands I carried like the deep-grooved gloves of a falconer that have learned the infinite difference between giving up and letting something go. —Joseph Fasano

Happy Moon Landing Day! On this day in 1969, Apollo 11 astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first humans to set foot on the Moon. This photo shows both astronauts on the Moon, with Armstrong reflected in the visor of Aldrin's helmet.
