ATTENTION All..<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Beginning today, we will again begin to use dotnet as our primary website.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

We have happily used Google Blogspot as our primary website for much of the month of July because we lost dotnet for some time because of our unfortunate issues with our Hosting Service.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Hello once again NATIONAL TODAY Holidays. Feast or Famine. Thirty Four (34) Holidays today.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

We picked the below two holidays.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Captain? O.K. I picked them!<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

THE WORLD WIDE WEB (www).<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

World Wide Web (www) Day recognizes the profound impact of the internet\u2019s most transformative invention every August 1st.<\/span><\/p>\n

Interesting! The www was not initially meant for the public. It was devised to be utilized by physicists to share data.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

However, when the World Wide Web reached the general public in 1991, it was an instant hit. At that time, it was merely a luxury, but today it\u2019s a necessity.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

As of early 2026, it\u2019s estimated that over 5.5 billion people globally use the internet, with the vast majority accessing the World Wide Web daily for information, communication, and entertainment.<\/em><\/p>\n

Without the World Wide Web, there would be no social media. <\/em><\/p>\n

What is the difference between the World Wide Web and the Internet?<\/em><\/p>\n

The Internet is a vast global network of interconnected computer networks, essentially the hardware infrastructure. The World Wide Web, on the other hand, is a system of interconnected documents and other web resources, accessed via the Internet, using HTTP.<\/em><\/p>\n

GUADALCANAL DAY..<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

What on this good earth are you talking about Captain?!<\/span><\/p>\n

Gotcha!\u00a0<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Unless you were a member of the United States Marine Corps, I don’t expect you to be interested in, or even know what the above NATIONAL TODAY Holiday is about.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Guadalcanal holds immense historical significance as the site of the first major Allied offensive against the Empire of Japan in the Pacific Theater during World War II. The brutal six-month campaign was a pivotal turning point.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n

\n
\n
Major General Alexander Vandegrift commanded the 1st Marine Division during the pivotal Guadalcanal Campaign of World War II, a crucial turning point in the Pacific Theater.<\/em><\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
His leadership during the intense fighting from August 1942 to February 1943 earned him the Medal of Honor. <\/em><\/span><\/div>\n
Vandegrift later became the 18th Commandant of the Marine Corps, overseeing its post-war reorganization. His strategic vision and courage on Guadalcanal remain a testament to his impact on military history.<\/em><\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
November the 5th, 1943, the full length feature movie Guadalcanal Diary was released.<\/em><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
