What happened today?
In 1861, the American Civil War began as Confederate forces fired on Fort Sumter in South Carolina.
In 1955, the Salk vaccine against Polio was declared safe and effective.
In 2000, Attorney General Janet Reno met in Miami with the U.S. relatives of Elian Gonzalez, after which she ordered them to bring the 6-year-old boy to an airport the next day so he could be taken to a reunion with his father in Washington. (Elian was seized by federal agents ten days after Reno’s order to turn him over.)
