The Anniversary of the Liberation of the Battle of Manila is observed on February 3 annually. It was an important battle of the Philippine campaign from 1944 to 1945. It was fought in Manila, the Philippines’ capital, by U.S. and Filipino forces against Japanese invaders. The month-long conflict destroyed the city, and nearly 100,000 inhabitants died. Japanese troops massacred Filipino villagers, while American artillery also killed many during the battle. Japanese resistance and American gunfire ravaged most of Manila’s architectural and cultural legacy. Manila was one of the war’s most devastating capitals, along with Berlin and Warsaw. The conflict ended the Japanese military occupation of the Philippines (1942 to 1945). The capture of Manila was crucial to General Douglas MacArthur’s reconquest operations.

Holiday Hugs Day

Holiday Hugs Day is celebrated every year on February 1 and it’s a day on which Atlanta Blood Services thanks all of the donors who participated in blood donation campaigns during the busy holiday season, on Christmas and New Year. These donors are usually people who have kept the habit of donating their platelets on a four-month streak the year before and continue to donate routinely to the blood bank. Platelets are cells within the human blood that help the body fight infections and diseases and are one of the main operators of the immune system.
