Royal Canadian Legion Branch No. 39 Remembers the Date of the end of World War II Rosanne Fortier News Correspondent

The Japanese surrendered from World War II after the United States dropped atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki on August 6 and 8 in 1945. To recognize significant dates from past wars, the Vegreville Royal Canadian Legion Branch No. 39 posted the message on their sign that stated, “Sept. 2, 1945, End of 2nd World War.” This was significant, as the surrender document was officially signed on that day.
