14 August is V-J or Victory over Japan Day. The Japanese announced their surrender to the US on 15 August 1945, however due to the international date line, the same time was 14 August in the United States. President Harry Truman announced from the White House their surrender within minutes of it actually happening. The formal surrender was signed aboard the battleship USS Missouri on 2 September 1945.
