TODAY IN HISTORY
- On this day in 1962, Jean-Marie Bastien-Thiry, French Air Force officer, led the Organisation de l’armée secrète (OAS), a French far-right organization, to machine gun France’s president, Charles De Gaulle, while he was riding to the airport with his wife. Bastien-Thiry and the OAS were unhappy that De Gaulle’s allowed Algeria’s independence. After being caught, Bastien-Thiry was the last person in France to be executed by a firing squad
- On this day in 1485, Henry Tudor (the future Henry VII) defeated the Yorkist king Richard III in the Battle of Bosworth Field, effectively ending the ‘Wars of the Roses’ and establishing the Tudor dynasty on the English throne.
