President Biden and first lady Jill Biden met Britain's Queen Elizabeth II for tea at Windsor Castle following their departure from the Group of Seven summit of world leaders on Sunday, making Mr. Biden the 13th sitting president to meet with the Britain's 95-year-old monarch.
Before having tea, Queen Elizabeth greeted the Bidens at the quadrangle of Windsor Castle. Upon their arrival, a member of the queen's Guard of Honor formed a royal salute, and then played the U.S. national anthem. They were then joined by the commanding officer of the Guard of Honor, and watch a military parade. The Royal Family was very active in this year's G-7 summit, held in Cornwall, England. The queen's eldest son, Prince Charles, who also holds the title of Duke of Cornwall, addressed the G-7 leaders about his Sustainable Markets Initiative, which encourage private investment into government-led efforts to combat climate change.UFO sightings should not be dismissed because they could in fact be surveillance drones or weapons, say Japanese lawmakers who launched a group on Thursday to probe the matter. The investigation comes less than a year after the U.S. Defense Department issued a report calling the region a "hotspot" for sightings of the mysterious objects.
The Allied invasion of Normandy 80 years ago today marked a pivotal event that historians often refer to as the beginning of the end of World War II. This operation began the liberation of Nazi-occupied territories and eventually ended the atrocities that resulted in the extermination of more than 6 million Jewish people.
In the weeks following D-Day, America and its allies deployed over 2 million troops into France, including a first-of-its-kind, top-secret U.S. military unit with a unique mission: to trick the Germans into chasing fake targets. Known as the Ghost Army, this unit's efforts 80 years ago marked the beginning of the end for Adolf Hitler.
