"Never give up, never despair — that was the message of VE Day."

• Her Majesty The Queen has made a special address on the 75th anniversary of VE Day, at the same hour her father, King George VI, made a radio broadcast to mark the end of war in Europe, exactly 75 years ago.

• Below is the broadcast in full #VEDay75

The Room The War In Europe Ended In

75 years ago tonight, the final instrument of surrender was signed in Berlin. The war in Europe over at last. 

Above is a short video I made a little while ago looking at the room in which the surrender was signed and the events surround the momentous occasion.

V-E Day 75:

“when we hear the great V-E news is announced, there is mild excitement lasting about five minutes. Then everyone goes back to work.” 

– Captain Horace R. Hansen

Today marks the 75th anniversary of V-E Day. Due to the current pandemic and #StayHomeMN we can’t share our copy of the May 8, 1945 edition of the Stars and Stripes Newspaper, held as part of our Horace R. Hansen Collection. The digitization of that collection is on hold and that item has not been processed yet. However, other institutions have digitized their copies, so we can share links and you can still have access to content. This also gives us an opportunity to spotlight The Stars and Stripes and the Minnesota Historical Society who both have fantastic digital access to a massive portion of their collections!
