The 40th anniversary of the resignation of Orange County's own Richard Nixon. My timeline starts with the Watergate break-in and runs through the adoption of articles of impeachment. Then, the timeline feeds into four major events of August 1974: The release of transcripts of the Watergate tapes, Nixon's resignation speech, his departure from the White House and his pardon by Gerald Ford. That helicopter at the top of the page? It's at the Nixon library in Yorba Linda. I've stood on that same step and given the double-V sign. Aug. 8, 2014
