The USS North Carolina (BB-55) My all-time favorite warship. As an elementary school student in North Carolina, I donated nickels and dimes to save this ship back in the early sixties.

When Will V-J Day Be Celebrated in DeKalb in 1945?

From the August 12, 2020, MidWeek  (DeKalb County, Illinois)  "Looking Back."

1945, 75 Years Ago.

"A DeKalb retailers schedule has been prepared which will be followed by the stores in this city when V-J Day is officially announced.

"This schedule will be followed unless President Truman, by his proclamation, sets aside a specific period celebration, in which case the retailer schedule will be disregarded and the president's  proclamation will be followed.
