In honor of the ending of World War II I have included a link an an audio clip and transcript of Japan surrendering on the deck of the USS Missouri. Today marks the anniversary of Japan's formal surrender.
Although World War II started in 1939 with Nazi Germany invading Poland, the United States did not join the war until December 7th as Japan attack Pearl Harbor, and other American installations in the Pacific.
After four long years of conflict, World War II ended on the USS Missiouri with General Douglas MacArthur presiding.

Happy Teaching!
