V-J Day

Today and tomorrow (August 14-15) commemorates the end of World War II.

The discrepancy comes from the progression of events:

Japan surrendered on August 14, 1945.

The news of the surrender wasn't announced until August 15, 1945.

The formal surrender ceremony took place on September 2.

Regardless of which day you celebrate, today is a day to remember. Take a moment.
