VIDEO VJ DAY CELEBRATION IN HONOLULU 1945

This weekend we are celebrating VJ Day which signaled the end of WW II.  I send this video  out every year as it  just represents a time in our country when we were all united in the celebration of the end of 4 long years of a world war.  .  A wonderful home movie from the celebrations of our military when the unofficial announcement of the Japanese surrender in Honolulu was made in 1945.  In the background, Jimmy Durante sings “I’ll be seeing you”.   Enjoy !   Nancy
