And it's cousin, Barbarossa. Quite the day in military history.

Napoleon's invasion of Russia is pretty close to this date too (24 June 1812 according to wikipedia). It seems military leaders like a bit of sunshine for their soldiers to enjoy between battles! Joking aside, it's a logical date for a big op of any kind in most of Europe due to the anticipated good weather (OK, maybe not UK!).
