The concept is now expanding across the countr and Congress has established the day as an official national Day of Remembrance..

Many WW II vets have been reluctant to discuss these experiences, even with their friends and families. They should be encouraged to do so now, before these important stories are lost forever. Members of "The Greatest Generation, including the families of GIs, are also encouraged to record their memories ot the day WW II ended. |
