Alan Rock's Trivia Questions

Q: Who was the first U.S. President to visit abroad?
A: Woodrow Wilson. He sailed for France on December 4th, 1918, becoming the first President to do so- except for the time George Washington sneaked into Dolly Madison's house.

Q: On December 4th, 1956 the U.S. Army announced it would no longer use what to deliver messages?
A: Carrier Pigeons. Instead, it would use Express Mail at the Post Office. Mailmen might not be quite as fast as pigeons, but they weren't quite as messy either.
