Intended to post this on Tuesday. Interesting version of this iconic number, whose Anglo-French composer was born 17th May 1866 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7sxtlHzkhzw

400 years ago today, on 25 May 1622, the British East India Company ship Tryall struck rocks and sank off the north west coast of Australia. The ship was sailing a newly ordered and therefore unfamiliar route with a crew who had never sailed those waters before.
93 died in the wreck and 47 survived. They scrambled ashore in the Montebello Islands and thus became the first Brits to set foot in Australia. After a week of preparation they sailed away in two boats salvaged from the Tryall and made it safely to Java, their original destination. 
They never actually made landfall on the mainland of Australia but were nevertheless the first to see the continent that GB would colonize 166 years later.

Horror Film Trio.

At the front, Peter Cushing, born 26 May 1913, second row left, Christopher Lee, born 27 May 1922 and on the right, Vincent Price, born 27 May 1911:

The Battle of Jutland 31 May/1 June 1916, but who won? A case can be made for either side.
If you concentrate of the actual action it was clearly a German victory - 14 Royal Navy ships sunk and 6094 sailors killed to the German's 11 ships lost and 2551 men dead.
But looking at it from the point of view of the aims and results of the battle it's less obvious. The Germans failed to destroy the Grand Fleet, in fact no British Dreadnought battleship was sunk, the prime target for bringing the Royal Navy to battle. The German High Command reasoned that if the battles were to be repeated on the same scale they would "run out" of ships before the British. 
Never again would the two fleets meet, the Germans made a few half-hearted sorties with their battleships into the North Sea, but not on the numbers we saw at Jutland and a full scale battle was avoided.

TB, I didn't know about the Native Americans being granted American citizenship on a certain day.  Thomas, I believe you are new to this site, so welcome.

For today 6th June 2022, a well-known 'on this day in history' fact is General Eisenhower giving the go-ahead for the D-Day landings.  Another anniversary is that of the opening of the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford.

Now do I have a broad general knowledge or have I done some 'googling' on the subject?  This Day in History - What Happened Today - HISTORY  I must admit that I haven't been all the way back through the thread so the D-Day one especially may have already been mentioned.

I specialize in Royal events, no matter how obscure. So Albert II, King of The Belgians 1993-2013, is 88 today.

Two political assassinations in Europe a century ago this week just gone.
22 June 1922 - Field Marshal Sir Henry Wilson, former Chief of the Imperial General Staff, murdered by the IRA outside his London home.
24 June 1922 - Walther Rathenau, Foreign Minister of Germany, murdered by Far Right activists while driving to work in Berlin. 
In England the two killers were executed. In Germany the two who carried out the gun and grenade attack were killed by police (one committed suicide as they closed in) the third, the driver of the killers' car was sentenced to 15 years' imprisonment, but served just six.
