Pictures and memories from my dads WWII Collection...This cemetery is located in the Philippines...Click here...The Horror of War...Lest We Forget!
Very moving considering what happened prior to this event... This is a 'must see' for the WWII history buff or anyone interested in history. Interesting the other signers to the document, from New Zealand/Australia to Europe/Russia. This is an actual film made of the surrender ceremony of the Japs to McArthur in Tokyo Bay on September 2,1945. Actual voice of the General. Never been shown to the general public before. We always saw the "stills" but never the film itself.
Historical Footage: Japanese Surrender Signing Aboard Battleship Missouri Sunday Sept. 2, 1945.An important piece of history.
