Sixty five years ago today, the Axis surrendered and WW II ended. VJ Day is a state holiday here in RI; we celebrated it last Monday.
Today Dad and I attended the Tribute to WW II veterans, which was well attended; in fact, they sold out tickets 5 WEEKS before the deadline to sign up!
They had several Jeeps and Seabees artifacts on display, as well as items from the Quonset Air Museum.
The program was a bit over 4 hours long, with a full course luncheon served. Veterans attend this Tribute for free.
More to come.
