Best Answer

Victory in JapanActually, there is no preposition in the phrase. The preposition was added in later decades by people that thought it sounded better with one.

"V-J Day" means "Victory - Japan Day"

The same thing is also done nowadays in reverse. People erroneously use the first letter of a preposition in a phrase when they create an acronym for that phrase. For example, the acronym "USA" stands for United States of America. If the acronym was created in recent years it would be USOA, because most people mistakenly believe that the "o" in "of" needs to included. An example of this is an event for which I used to set up audio called the "World Series of Poker". The logo for the event consists of the incorrect acronym "WSOP" when it should in fact be "WSP".

Casino executives are good at bringing in money, but not so good with English.
