VJ Day in Hawaii – August 14th, 1945 Caught on Film!

Visit discoveringhawaii.com for color stills from this amazing day, and other Hawaii-related films. I have over one hour of beautiful Kodachome 16mm movie footage filmed by my Dad on VJ Day and the three weeks following, which was always intended to be expanded into a documentary, “The Day World War II Ended.”
