Harry Truman announcing surrender of Japan

Public statement by Harry S. Truman on September 1, 1945 announcing the surrender of Japan.

This is a moment that millions of people in the United States and the rest of the world were waiting for. It is a lot of historical significance, as it marks the end of WWII. While it may not be great quality, it is high encyclopedic value. Appears in Surrender of Japan.
