3 casualties and its a remembered date??!
I just learned today in History Class that the USA almost declared war on Chile in the 1800's because the naval men on the USS Baltimore got drunk in a Chile bar, got in a brawl and 2 died. The USA got angry at Chile for that and it almost caused a war. Imagine that.
“Caw, Caw!” The call of the wild calls you. Are you listening? Do you dare challenge their power? Do you dare invade? Nature will always triumph in the end.

yes, people were weird at that time. Going to war over an insult
I think the shortest war ever lasted something like two minutes, apparently, one side got scared
