On the 23rd April is St. George's Day, the name of a famous dragon slayer of legend. It's celebrated in many countries and is the patron saint of England, Portugal, Catalonia, Venice and Ethiopia. Many people sought the protection of St George over the centuries during bad miserable times.
During WWI, British soldiers saw a glowing apparition that they believed to be St George, along with an army of knights, descending on Earth to help them through the war. This event was called Angels of Mons.
Did these soldiers of the trenches witness any dragons? That would make an interesting story. In England, St George is a dragon slayer and this day has also come to be known as a fantastic dragon day and a dragon memorial day among some. But there has been many dragon sightings over time, and after the two world wars. Here is a list of some well known historical dragon sightings:
