You think American appreciation of history is at it’s nadir?

Apparently the Battle of Trafalgar was won in vain, as the celebration of the great British naval victory has been taken over by PC EU-nichs and the like. I can’t comment sufficiently on such lunacy, so check out the article. Mark might want to give “props” to Anna Tribe, 75, the great, great, great granddaughter of Lord Nelson:

“I am anti-political correctness. Very much against it. It makes fools of us.”

Huzzah!

I think a fun exercise might be to find other battles that have been “won in vain.” The Siege of Vienna springs immediately to mind. Any others?
