Lawdy Miss Clawdy, The war didn't end until the Japanese surrendered. I remember it well. It was well after my fourth birthday which was on August second.

You are correct. Why does it matter? It matters to those who lost loved ones, loved ones who sacrificed and paid the ultimate price.

I was born at the end of July so my mum was pregnant then. How did they go on. We did have a Anderson shelter in the garden.

Linardy, there was only 1 start date for WWII, and that was Sept 1939. When Britian and France declared war on Germany after the invasion of Poland, the Commonwealth countries like Canada, Australia, New Zealand, etc, were automatically in it. The US joined only after Japan bombed Pearl Harbor.

your dates are wrong. Check the invasion of China by the Japanese Empire as the start of the World War
