Seventy Years Ago
Today, seventy years ago, on the 8th of May 1945 WW2 ended in Europe while it continued in Asia and the Pacific until 2nd of September of 1945. It lasted 6 years and 1 day in total, was the most widespread war in history, involved more than 100 million people from over 30 countries and resulted in estimated 50 to 85 million fatalities. Five years ago I worked on a multimedia project I ended up calling “SHADOW OF WAR” when I realized how much this war still overshadows even my life.
