60 years ago the Japanese surrendered, bringing a formal end to WWII.
Remember our fathers and grandfathers,uncles, cousins and all of the rest of the men and women from the GREATEST GENERATION.
Please take a few moments to remember...and to be thankful for their bravery and their sacrifices.

Yes we NEED TO remember them everyday and be thankful for their sacrifices and we NEED to look at what they accomplished...and why!
So many have no clue or don't ever think of what they went through and suffered for years!!!
THANK GOD, Members of THE GREATEST GENERATION were not the sort of people, that are around today that are claiming the President killed their son or daughter or loved one.....instead of blaming the REAL CULPRITS that are TERRORISTS and NOT insurgents!!!
