I have 2 V-E day issues of Stars and Stripes. One of them was a special supplement about V-E day, with articles about what comes next, explaining about some troops being transferred to the Pacific, etc. I can nearly imagine the joy of V-E Day turning to fear and dread, as these boys contemplated surviving one war...only to roll the dice once more, hoping to survive the unknown dangers awaiting them in the PTO! Thank God for the A-Bomb and Harry S. Truman! I say that with no apologies.
