How we source these
Public holidays are taken from official government sources for each country and cover national holidays only. The United States, Canada and Australia all have significant state and provincial holidays that are not shown, and India’s system of state, optional and restricted holidays means only three days are observed nationwide. Where a government has not yet published a year, we say so rather than guess. Always check the official source for the country concerned rather than relying on this alone.
August 14th through history
Soldiers onto the streets, and the last enemy laid low
On August 14th 1969 British troops were deployed on the streets of Northern Ireland after three days of rioting in Derry known as the Battle of the Bogside. The operation was given the name Banner and was expected by the government of the day to last a matter of weeks. It ended on July 31st 2007, the longest continuous deployment in British military history.
On the evening of August 14th 1945 the Japanese government accepted the Allied terms. Truman announced it in Washington at seven in the evening, which was midnight in London, and Clement Attlee broadcast to the nation on the stroke of the hour: ‘Japan has today surrendered. The last of our enemies is laid low.’ Most people in Britain slept through it and read about it over breakfast.
On August 14th 1980 workers occupied the Lenin Shipyard in Gdansk over the sacking of a crane driver. The strike spread to the coast, produced twenty-one demands, and by September had produced Solidarity, the first independent trade union in the Soviet bloc.
Steve Martin, the comedian and actor, sold guidebooks at Disneyland as a boy and worked his way to the park’s magic shop, which is a more orthodox apprenticeship in comedy than it sounds. He was born on August 14th 1945, Magic Johnson, the basketball star, in 1959, Sarah Brightman, the singer known for her work in musical theatre, in 1960 and Halle Berry, the Oscar-winning actress, in 1966.
Born on August 14th: star sign, birthstone and birth flower
Steve Martin and Halle Berry — both named above — share this star sign with everyone else born in the same window.
Star sign
Leo — a Fire sign ruled by the Sun, symbolised by the Lion.
Birthstone
traditionally Sardonyx, or Peridot or Spinel in the modern list for August.
Birth flower
Gladiolus (primary), also Poppy — most commonly cited sources agree on gladiolus as the main August flower.
None of this is settled fact in the way the history above is — zodiac dates, birthstones and birth flowers are conventions rather than laws, and different sources hedge them slightly differently. The birthstone is the most standardised of the three (set by the trade in 1912 and revised since); the birth flower is the least, resting on Victorian tradition rather than any governing body.
Gift ideas for a August 14th birthday
A small, themed starting point rather than a shopping list — sardonyx for the stone, Leo for the sign, and the sky itself on the day.
