This is a really cool home movie taken in Honolulu on VJ Day in 1945.
Great video of a Spontaneous Victory Parade in Honolulu in 1945.
Take a look at this video-absolutely fabulous! Notice the cars and jeeps,
youth. The guys in khaki or gray shirts and black ties are Navy
officers or chiefs. The rest are Army or Marine. How young they all were
to do what they did.
This guy really captured a moment in history! (You can listen to Jimmy
Durante singing, "I'll be Seeing You" in the background, too)
This is a super video of a time past -- One we need to remember and be
THANKFUL that it happened.
Check out the color fidelity. It's not bad for 1945. Nothing will ever
compare with Kodachrome film.
