On this day in 1945: World War II ends

World War II Memorial,
Washington DC
By far the bloodiest war in history ended on this date when the Japanese government surrendered to the Allies on the deck of the USS Missouri in Tokyo Bay.

Thank you to those men and women still with us who brought down evil in two hemispheres. Your efforts will never be forgotten and yours was truly the greatest generation.
