One of those odd days on the calendar that seem to have a lot of big/famous battles attached

Taginae - 552. Byzantine general Narses beats the Ostrogoths

Boyne - 1690. The end of the Jacobite cause in Ireland

Malvern Hill - 1862. last of the Seven Days Battles, ACW

Gettysburg - 1863

San Juan Hill - 1890. Spanish American War

The Somme - 1916

First El Alamain - 1942

September 17th is another. Myriocephaleon, Breitenfeld, Antietam, a couple in the Boer War

Looking on, she sings the songs. The words she knows, the tune she hums

Narses was a eunuch but that did not stop him wiping Totila's dial.
