National Sea Serpent Day

Have you ever looked out over the water and thought you saw a magnificent creature break the surface? Many men on board the HMS Daedalus in August 1848 couldn't believe their eyes as they looked out over the South Atlantic, as they looked out. On a voyage to Saint Helena, several passengers and officers discovered a 60-foot-long creature with a peculiar maned head above the ocean water. This siting and many other tales that are yet to be told are commemorated on National Sea Serpent Day.

On August 7th, Purple Heart Day honors the establishment of the country's oldest military decoration for military achievement.
