August 30 - This day in history

Today - August 30 - is also Turkish 'Zafer Bayram' which roughly translates to 'Turkish Victory Day' - a national holiday, commemorating the clinching/decisive battle in the Turkish Revolutionary war, which was apparently Aug 30, 1922. The commanding general who led the troops in that battle was none other than Ataturk, who would go on to be commemorated on more Turkish stamps than Washington is on US stamps!!
