I was but an infant on VJ day in 1945 and don't recall anything about it first hand. I have always been student of history, however and always take a minute or two to remember what happened. Not clear when VJ day was Aug 14, Aug 15 or Sep 2. No matter, the war was over and all could celebrate it.
Thanks to all of the greatest generation for your service.
Question of the day:
Do you think that President Truman made the right decision in August 1945 to drop those two atomic bombs on Japan?
