Iraq 1, ground troops went in. Iraq 2 started in March. Here we are again with Iran. Not war, but Covid went big time in March.

Why March?

March is always busy. Wars and turnarounds always start in March. I blame daylight savings time starting.

Maybe the month is named after Mars for a reason.

The Season for War: In ancient Israel, the spring (around the month of March) was known as the time "when kings go forth to battle," as seen in 2 Samuel 11:1. After the winter rains, the weather improved, rivers became passable, and farming allowed soldiers to leave.
Etymology and Roman Tradition: The month name "March" comes from the Latin Martius, named after Mars, the Roman god of war. As the first month of the Roman year, it was considered the natural starting point for military campaigns

Starts the decent war weather for moving troops. You may need more time than you think.
