Greetings all,
On this Day we commemorate with sadness the sack of the city of Rome by the Vandals on June 2nd in 455 AD:
This went on for two straight weeks, thanks to the actions of the
Emperor Petronius Maximus. The Senate had fled the city before the
Vandals arrived and no defense had been mounted.
-Marcus Cassius Julianus
