On This Day

July 2, 1937: Earhart Vanishes Over the Pacific:
"At 8:43 a.m. local time, the Coast Guard cutter Itasca, steaming off Howland Island, receives this faint transmission from Amelia Earhart: 'KHAQQ calling Itasca. We must be on you but cannot see you -- but gas is running low….'

She vanishes along with her navigator, Fred Noonan, into the Central Pacific, and they're never heard from again."

It's a good time to repost this:
