VIDEO: AMAZING COLOR ON DAY OF JAPAN'S SURRENDER

What it must have been like. The day victory over Japan was declared, ending WWII. Otherwise known as VJ Day August 14, 1945. The most famous photos are from New York City but what about where our war with Japan all started - Hawaii? Here is a three minute montage video - with music - courtesy of Richard Sullivan, whose father shot this film as the celebratory atmosphere was in high gear. It sure would be nice if times were this good right now.

Be sure to have the sound on too.
