Gratitude to Andy Romanoff who sent this to me.

My own father was in the Pacific on VJ Day and I found myself watching and searching for him in the footage from that day 66 years ago. Alas, he wasn’t there, as far as I could tell.

The video was taken by Richard Sullivan and his son put this up two years ago. The text with the video was shot on Kodachrome and had actual sound. The men and women look like our young people today, but most are probably consigned to the ages.

Ahh…the quick passage of time. That day must have felt like an anvil was lifted from everyone’s neck. If only we felt it today!
