Thanks for sharing some of the significant events as far as msn.com is concerned which occurred on November 30 Maj Marty Hogan. What seemed most significant to me are:
1, 1803: THE LOUISIANA PURCHASE TREATY: "Spain completes the process of ceding Louisiana to France, which had sold it to the United States." Cheap land - Louisiana Purchase and Seward's Folly purchase of Alaska were two wonderful long-term real-estate bargains.
2. 1939: USSR INVADES FINLAND, BOMBS HELSINKI:"The Winter War begins as Soviet troops invade Finland. (The conflict ends the following March with a Soviet victory)." Those of us familiar with history are well aware of the winter war where Russia unsuccessfully tried to take over Finland beginning in 1939.

LTC Stephen F. Today was also the day the Brits signed of on the end of the Revolutionary War- making this "the effective" Independence Day.
