This Day in American History (twofer)
On this day in 1861, Union General George B. McClellan was put in command of the Army of the Potomac. There wasn't the possibility of a better move for the South short of unconditional surrender by the North.
And on this day in 1953, a cease fire/truce was declared in the Korean War. That war continues and P'yŏngyang is overdue for a nuclear strike--a small one.
