I agree with the range of sentiments expressed today on the #vjday2025 — not least in the centenary of my late & much-loved FIL, who fought in Burma aged 19 & spoke little of it. The reasons for the Japanese war’s marginalisation are complex, requiring very exacting works of memory

Last week I had the pleasure of being on #QueenMary2 captained by Coventry's own Aseem Hashmi. As we mark #vjday2025 it's made me reflect on the contribution the merchant navy made in ww2. Our brave sailors risked, & sacrificed, their lives in the name of freedom. Never forgotten

We will never forget. #VJDay2025

Alison Moss - "I'm here to tell you, Norah Chambers saved lives" - BBC Sounds Author Heather Morris found herself in Jersey to uncover the story of a remarkable woman.

Especially poignant on #vjday2025 listen to the story that Heather Morris uncovered, of the Jersey Choirmistress who saved lives in an Indonesian war camp with her vocal choir #sistersundertherisingsun

Vessels on the River Mersey sounded their whistles at 12.02pm, led by Cunard’s Queen Anne, to mark the end of the national two-minute silence. #VJDay2025 #VJ80 ❤️
