Today Is A Grade-D-Day
Teacher: “Question two: What event in December of 1942 is described when the book says ‘bleached bodies lying on the French coast’?”
(The teacher later refined the question to June of 1942 after the class established that she was thinking of Pearl Harbor. Afterwards…)

Me: “[Teacher], I think you were wrong about D-Day being in 1942.”
Teacher: “Well, let’s check, shall we?” *pulls out iPhone* “Siri, when was D-Day?”
Siri: “June 6, 1944”
Teacher: “All right, then…”
