Hi guys,
This is mainly aimed t the Americans on list, but anyone from other
countries feel free to chime in. I've been watching the VE day ceremonies
and I'm getting quite irked by the fact that not only are the commentators
ignoring the fact that the war was still going on in the Far East but that
several of them have referreed to it as the end of the war. Are American
commentators doing the same thing?
British commentators seem to have forgotten all about the rest of the war
and it seems vaguely insulting to all those British and Empire soldiers who
were still fighting and dying in Asia or imprisoned in camps over there.
