Sad video, but important to understand the aftermath of war,
flying over the ruins of Berlin in 1945

70 years ago today, Nazis unconditionally surrender.

Hitler has committed suicide, the Third Reich demolished.

Thanks and prayers to all the vets then and now.

WWII did not end today 70 years ago.

That event happened in August 1945.

Victory Europe happened 70 years ago this month.

Facts. Many died after this date in that war.

VE Day was not the ending of WW2.

Yep, it was the end of the 2nd WW—in Europe—unless the Japs snuck in under the radar... ;)
