WHEN OUR COUNTRY STILL HAD MORALS, FOCUS, LEADERSHIP, DIRECTION, AND HOPE!!!! NOW WE ONLY HAVE CORRUPTION, DISHONESTY, LIES, SELF INTEREST, AND ONLY PEOPLE WHO WANT EVERYTHING FOR NOTHING. IT IS A SAD SATE OF AFFAIRS.
I know not everyone on my email list is old enough to remember this but this video really impressed me and it's possibly because of the recent Memorial Day celebrations but you can be the judge.
In words of the author:
65 Years Ago my Dad shot this film along Kalakaua Ave. in Waikiki capturing spontaneous celebrations that broke out upon first hearing news of the Japanese surrender. Kodachrome 16mm film: God Bless Kodachrome, right? I was able to find an outfit (mymovietransfer.com) to do a much superior scan of this footage to what I had previously posted, so I re-did this film and replaced the older version There are more still images from this amazing day, in color, at discoveringhawaii.com
