On this day in 1945 the representatives of His Majesty the Emperor of Japan signed the official surrender to the representatives of the Allied nations, officially ending World War II. As such, it is an appropriate time to remember and honor all of those who gave their lives in honorable service to the Emperor, showing great valor and self-sacrifice under the most difficult circumstances. May they never be forgotten.
