thanks to all who fought and died to rid the world of the Nazi menace.

In light of the almost, immediate, display of Soviet hegemony in Berlin, and else where, a short lived celebration indeed...

If only our nations today were as great as they were then.

Arguably, the greatest day in modern world history. Loved it!

@SFLRailFan Agreed. When you realize the scope and reality of the situation, it is without question one of the most significant moments for mankind. Why? Because the UK and all of Europe would have been overrun by the Nazi's if the US hadn't joined forces with Britain. That along with Russia being on a quest of their own to stop the mad man after they too were invaded and actually got to him first.
