00:00As the Soviet army advances through the streets of Berlin,
00:10Reich Chancellor Adolf Hitler marries his longtime mistress, Eva Braun.
00:16He waits until the Soviets are only blocks away,
00:21and then shoots himself in the head.
00:25This is London calling. Here is a news flash.
00:29The German radio has just announced that Hitler is dead.
00:35Here's a special news bulletin.
00:36The British Broadcasting Company has just reported
00:39that Adolf Hitler died at the Reich Sanctuary in the heart of Berlin Berlin.
00:46With Hitler gone and the capital of the Third Reich now a smoldering ruin,
00:52the men and women of the Allied forces, including G.I. Rocky Blunt,
00:57know that the end of the war is upon them.
01:06I guess I'll be heading home soon.
01:09After everything I've been through,
01:11that will be a major accomplishment by any account.
01:13But there's still so many unanswered questions,
01:19so much I'm uncertain of.
01:23One thing I am certain of,
01:25I have to put the horrors of the past behind me
01:28and build a new life,
01:31a life of peace,
01:34not war.
01:35and there was no such thing this day.
01:39I'm sorry.
01:43Let's just go to the third piece
01:45of this page.
01:46Have a nice19 photo.
01:50The second piece of this podcast is первый
01:51one of the judgments i've heard
01:52about the whole world is the main trail.
01:53In a half way,
01:54the people of the world are being
02:01the keeper is a European acceptable purpose.
02:02¡Gracias por ver el video!
02:32In view of this fact, tomorrow, Tuesday, will be treated as Victory in Europe Day.
02:39After nearly six long years, the war in Europe is finally over.
02:46May 8, 1945, is declared Victory in Europe Day.
02:51Spontaneous celebrations erupt throughout the world.
02:54French soldiers pick me up, hoist me on their shoulders, and carry me down the Champs-Elysees shouting,
03:07¡Vive la France! ¡Vive l'Amérique!
03:09After four years of service in five countries, U.S. Army nurse June Wandry is on furlough in Paris on V.E. Day.
03:22We are in the heart of Paris. The crowd is nearly hysterical.
03:26Everyone is out on the streets, planes zooming overhead in huge formations.
03:35All the important brass are there, de Gaulle, and here I am.
03:46A very great crowd is collected already.
03:56Thousands upon thousands of people gathered to share this historic day with the King and Queen.
04:01Listen to the crowd.
04:02The last communique of World War II is in.
04:14The Russian people were told for the first time of Germany's unconditional surrender.
04:19In the nearly four years that the United States fought in World War II,
04:24about 16 million Americans served in the armed forces.
04:28Over 415,000 never made it home.
04:33Most were killed in combat.
04:36Many remain missing in action.
04:39For those who survived, the echoes of the war experience linger for a lifetime.
04:46In my opinion, war is a terrible thing.
04:50I never thought in my life, in my young life, that I would see what I saw
04:54and how to go through what I went through.
05:00Every cross I see in a military cemetery represents a young life
05:04of between 20 and 40 years of age.
05:07That's a waste.
05:09That shouldn't be.
05:12The people who create those situations
05:15are never the ones that are out there fighting.
05:19I detest that.
05:25I hate it.
05:37War is stupid.
05:40Crazy.
05:44We've got to have love.
05:46There is a pride in being a veteran.
05:54I know that being a veteran sets me apart
05:57from millions of other people
05:59who did not sacrifice so much of their life
06:03and their mentality and their emotions
06:07for our country.
06:10Of that, I'm very proud.
06:12What is the greatest generation?
06:20The greatest generation was everybody who worked hard
06:24to provide the means by which we were able to win this war.
06:30The greatness encompassed the country as well,
06:35the whole country.
06:37It's all of us, not just the military.
06:41The spirit of man has awakened.
06:55The soul of man has gone forth.
06:58Grant us the wisdom and the vision
07:00to comprehend the greatness of man's spirit
07:03that suffers and endures so hugely
07:06for a goal beyond his own brief span.
07:12We are all of us children of Earth.
07:15Grant us that simple knowledge.
07:18If our brothers are oppressed,
07:21then we are oppressed.
07:24If they hunger, we hunger.
07:26If their freedom is taken away,
07:31our freedom is not secure.
07:34Grant us a common faith
07:36that man shall know bread and peace,
07:40that he shall know justice and righteousness,
07:43freedom and security,
07:45an equal opportunity and an equal chance
07:48to do his best,
07:50not only in our own lands,
07:52but throughout the world.
07:55And in that faith,
07:56let us march.
07:58March toward the clean world
08:01our hands can make.
