    V-E Day. Thanks for remembering.

    As the son of a WWII veteran I can appreciate the sacrifices made by that generation.

    If the Japanese Empire had surrendered 1 day earlier, The 2nd World War would have lasted 6 yrs to the very day!

    9/1/39 to 9/1/45 instead of 9/1/39 to 9/2/45 as it did.

    Would have made for great symmetry. Take it when you can get it.

    I'm curious as to how many of today's young people EVEN know what WWII is.
