War veterans celebrate VP Day.
Today was the 60th anniversary of Victory in the Pacific Day. I must say, to my shame, I don't know very much about the war our soldiers fought. I think I know more about the war in Europe. I aim to fix this during the coming year.
But I do wonder how much we have learned. We humans are still at. Thankfully something as horrific as a nuclear bomb has not been used again: but we appear to have biological and all manner of other horror-inducing weapons.
May the souls of the departed rest in peace, and rise in glory. And may our Lord have mercy on us all.
