Good cause to celebrate the end of the senseless slaughter of millions of lives.
Between 80 and 100 million lives were lost to that horrible war, another 200+ million were left blind, limbless, severely crippled and/or with severe physical or emotional injury. No-one really has an accurate casualty count. Such wars have a way of spring boarding other wars as the world tries to put itself back together afterwards.
The people of Japan also need celebrate that their emperor called it quits before taking all of Japan into hell with him. The brutal and merciless way they conducted the war left them undeserving of mercy. Thankfully good hearts prevailed.
This is also a good time to again thank that "Greatest Generation Ever" for pulling the world through those dark hours. God bless them ♥️
