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.
September 15th through history
Battle of Britain Day, and the first tanks
On Sunday September 15th 1940 the Luftwaffe made its largest concentrated daylight attack on London, and some 1,500 aircraft fought over the south-east until dusk. Churchill, who had driven over to 11 Group headquarters at Uxbridge, asked Air Vice-Marshal Park what other reserves were available and was told there were none. British newspapers reported 185 German aircraft destroyed. Post-war counts put the real figure between fifty-six and sixty-one, depending on how losses on the return flight are treated, against something under thirty RAF machines. Two days later Hitler postponed the invasion indefinitely, and September 15th has been kept as Battle of Britain Day.
Tanks were used in war for the first time on September 15th 1916, at Flers-Courcelette on the Somme. Forty-nine were delivered and thirty-two reached the start line; most of the rest broke down. The crews worked in heat, noise and fumes for hours at a walking pace.
The Liverpool and Manchester Railway opened on September 15th 1830, and the day was overshadowed when William Huskisson, Member of Parliament for Liverpool, stepped down onto the adjacent track at Parkside and was struck by Rocket. He died that evening.
Agatha Christie, the crime writer whose plots still outsell most living novelists, was born in Torquay on September 15th 1890. Prince Harry, the younger son of the then Prince of Wales, was born in 1984, and both the actor Tommy Lee Jones and the film director Oliver Stone in 1946.
Born on September 15th: star sign, birthstone and birth flower
Agatha Christie and Prince Harry — both named above — share this star sign with everyone else born in the same window.
Star sign
Virgo — an Earth sign ruled by Mercury, symbolised by the Maiden.
Birthstone
Sapphire for September.
Birth flower
Aster (primary), also Morning Glory — most commonly cited sources agree on aster as the main September 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.

A small, themed starting point rather than a shopping list — sapphire for the stone, Virgo for the sign, and the sky itself on the day.
