I vividly remember writing this story, 28 years ago. It was our last weekend in Tokyo after six years, our house was packed up, and most Tokyo correspondents sped to Seoul, expecting war might break out. We thought North Korean collapse was imminent. We were wrong.

My Dad, who passed away a few months ago at 98, would tell stories of seeing Union vets - by then old men - parade on July 4 down Riverside Drive in the ‘30s. That memory, and this page, are a reminder that we aren’t as far from those events as we think.

The @nytimes headline on the Pulse nightclub massacre: “Worst Shooting on U.S. Soil.” That headline would be outdated one year later, when the mass shooting in Las Vegas took place — 58 people were killed by a gunman opening fire on a concert from the 32nd floor of a hotel.

Reminder. We returned to the original if improved timeline only a month ago. Some loose ends still need to be tied. But with every passing day you will feel the difference as the neo-Nazi and fanatic projects will be thoroughly defeated. Just wait & see.

As I fly to Europe, joining @nytimes colleagues covering this critical moment, this page 1 reminds us of the sweep of past 77 years. We have gone from alliance with Soviets, to Cold War, to a brief hope Russia would join West, to desperation to avoid new, manufactured conflict.

As we know, Congress did *not* approve FDR’s #SCOTUS-expansion plan. But it *did* approve his other proposal—to limit the power of individual district judges to block federal policies. As I wrote last month, Congress should consider bringing *that* reform (repealed in 1976) back.
